Udemy – Induction Heating: Electrothermal Multiphysics FEA in ANSYS

Simulate induction heating the right way: from the electromagnetic field to the final temperature map. Induction heating looks simple until you try to simulate it. Current crowds into a thin layer at the surface, that loss turns into heat, and the heat changes the material properties, which changes the loss. This course teaches you to model that whole chain in ANSYS and to understand every setting you choose.

What this course covers:

• Induction heating fundamentals: how a coil, a changing magnetic field and eddy currents heat a metal part from within, explained in practical terms
• Electromagnetic modeling in ANSYS Maxwell 3D: building the coil and workpiece, setting up the eddy current solver, and choosing mesh settings based on skin depth
• Three thermal workflows, built and compared:
  • Maxwell with Icepak
  • Maxwell with Mechanical inside AEDT
  • Maxwell with standalone Workbench Mechanical, in steady-state and transient analyses
