Based on the remarkable discoveries of the fathers of electromagnetism, induction heating and melting became one of the most advanced methods of material production, modification and manufacturing. Industries that intensively use induction heating include steel, automotive, machinery, aerospace, electronics, crystal growth and some others. New applications are emerging in food and packaging industries, and even in medicine. But who invented induction heating and when did it happen? Various significant developments and methods that played a big role in induction technique are almost forgotten or at least not known to modern engineers. The goal of this book is not to give an accurate chronological list of main events and achievements, but to show dynamics of technology and illustrate it with examples, multiple pictures and references. Contents: Backround of induction heating; induction technology in metallurgy and metallworking; induction melting (development of furnaces, innovative technologies); induction heating (surface hardening, transverse flux heating, heating for hot metal forming); power sources; design and calculation methods, etc.
