Abstract
This paper presents two numerical methods, which will be able to predict the temperature distribution in the thin moving conducting sheet, which is caused by the eddy‐current losses in transverse flux inductive heating devices (TFIH). The first method is based on a finite element calculation, while the second one is based on a circuit approach. The main aim of this paper is the validation of the circuit model by comparison with the more accurate and sophisticate finite element model. In addition, the results of both numerical models have also been compared with those obtained by experimental measurements.
