ABSTRACT:
To obtain more uniform heating across the susceptor when welding composite parts using induction heating, we create edge regions of lower absolute impedance or a lower longitudinal impedance than the transverse impedance to counterbalance the higher current density and current that occurs near the edges. We achieve lower impedance at the edges by altering the aspect ratio (length/width) of openings in the susceptor, by folding the susceptor over onto itself, or both. Uniform heating is important to obtaining a uniform, consistent weld on which aerospace designers can rely.
