• ABSTRACT: This article presents an induction heating converter simulation and parametrization. The observed converter is used for induction hardening of different details. It consists of two equal units, supplying power to a common load. Converters’ system simulations are performed by using as a load a system inductor-details with certain dimensions. As a result from the simulations the requirements to the converter control system are defined. Driving the converters according to these requirements will help achieving constant power in the load during the heating process. Load parameters are a function of the heated detail’s layer temperature.
