This paper aims to describe main ideas and demonstrates results of the research activities carried out by the authors in the field of optimal design concepts for induction heater for surface hardening.
The main goal of the research studies is the application of different optimization methods and numerical finite element method (FEM) codes for field analysis to solve the optimal design problem that is mathematically formulated in terms of the one of the most important optimization criteria for surface hardening technology, e.g. maximum temperature uniformity within the hardening surface layer.
