The main target of this thesis is to provide new, fast and accurate methodologies to model and analyse the operation of a domestic hob, with a focus on the inverter, inductor and load, which represent the cornerstone of all the induction heating systems. A novel control strategy is developed in order to avoid the use of the PDM strategy for the low power levels. In the last part, a special chapter about a new concept of smart pot is presented, with some insights about the system modellization.ope
