Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method and a device for homogeneously heating, by transverse electromagnetic flux, thin non-magnetic conductive products of variable dimensions.
- Document US-A-4 122 321 discloses a device for heating flat products using elongated magnetic poles.
- the products to be heated being thick and long sheets, it is difficult or even impossible to ensure uniformity of heating with this device, especially along the edges of the product and when the dimensions of the product change.
- Document FR-A-2 334 755 also discloses a method of heating a strip of infinite length during its running. The installation allowing the implementation of this process uses a linear motor.
- the main object of the invention is to homogeneously heat a flat product when stopped, having two finite dimensions whatever these dimensions, for example in the context of a range of sheet metal manufacturing.
- the process according to the invention consists in the generation, in the product, of currents (m) closing inside the meshes, the dimensions and the shapes of these current meshes resulting from spatial variations of the alternating magnetic field at which the product is subjected, the intensities of the currents in each mesh being such that the average value of the power density dissipated in each mesh is the same throughout the product.
- the borders are, in general, not compatible with a given spatial distribution of the magnetic field, the dimensions of the treated products being variable or the expansion due to heating causing a significant variation of the latter.
- the elementary meshes generated are not always those which exist in the case of an infinite product.
- the average power density dissipated in one of these border meshes is different from that which would be dissipated for an infinite product. Certain meshes close to the border meshes can be disturbed.
- a mesh of local border heterogeneity constituted by one or more juxtaposed elementary meshes is defined.
- the dissipated power is adjusted by adjusting the intensity of the current loops (b) facing this mesh of local heterogeneity then defined.
- each mesh of local heterogeneity of heating is identified with an elementary mesh.
- Inductor current loops not facing the product are turned off.
- the heating device consists of two identical horizontal inductors (A1 and A2) facing each other, arranged on either side of the product (F) to be heated (FIG. 1).
- Each of the inductors is made up of identical square conductive windings (1), regularly arranged in an identical polar pitch in two orthogonal directions. In each of these directions, at each instant, the current loops (b) thus formed constitute a succession of alternating North and South magnetic poles ( Figures 2 and 3).
- the magnetic fluxes are closed, allowing the effectiveness of the device to be reinforced, is ensured by a magnetic circuit (2), possibly ment in puff pastry. This closure can be carried out in one or both of the directions mentioned above, as the case may be. Closure in one - direction allows a simpler adjustment of the variation of the field profile in the orthogonal direction, the interactions between poles of two lines parallel to the direction of closure being weaker (figure 4).
- the size of the pole is determined as a function of the maximum power density of the heating to be obtained, of the thermal conductivity of the product and of the maximum admissible temperature difference in the product during heating.
- the temperature differences in the product can however be reduced, at the end of heating, by a reduction in the power density to which they are, at first order, proportional.
- the variation in the magnetic field described above also achieves stable maintenance of the product between the inductors.
- the position of the product relative to the inductors is known, for example from its entry position and from the movements made.
- a computer From the position of the product (B figure 5), in particular that of its border compared to the poles of the inductor, and the characteristics of the product (F), a computer (E) elaborates the values of the intensities having to travel poles to obtain homogeneous heating. These intensities are substantially equal over most of the product; they are only different for the poles close to the product border. In the case of products much longer than wide, the production can be simplified by adjusting the intensities only by rows of poles parallel to the large width, the relative variations in intensity concerning only two or three rows on each side of the product. .
- a device (G) regulates, from a source (S) whose frequency can be variable, the intensities in each pole or group of poles.
- the desired rise in temperature can be obtained from a temperature setpoint (C) and a temperature measurement (D) of the product which is compared and which constitutes an input to the computer (E).
- a function generator works out the average temperature function of the product with respect to time, the computer (E) then compares this temperature setpoint (C) to the calculated temperature, by integrating the heating already carried out to deliver the intensity setpoints allowing to respect the desired function.
- a complement consists in comparing the calculated temperature to a real temperature measurement of the product and therefore to carry out a control, therefore to avoid slow drifts, or to carry out a self-adaptation of the mathematical model employed by the calculator.
- the processed products are rectangular.
- the length and width of the product are inputs to the main computer.
- the main axis of the product being parallel to the heating device, the knowledge of the position of one of the points of the product, for example the center, relative to the heating device makes it possible to completely determine the position of the product (in particularly that of its borders) with respect to the inductor.
- the product on arrival, the product is arranged symmetrically with respect to two known perpendicular axes.
- the product is displaced by successively extinguishing rows of adjacent poles, therefore step by step, by a distance equal to one pole step.
- a counter is incremented at each extinction and therefore gives the position of the center at all times.
- the rise in temperature of the product is, for example, known by integration as a function of time, of the density power quotient (determined by the computer) mass heat at the considered temperature. It can be checked by measuring the temperature of the product using a claw thermometer.
