Dear Friends,

I am from a Charitable NGO feeding mid-day meals to school going children across India. We are working on a temperature controlled Induction heating cookwares like Cook top, boilers, Wok, brat pans etc., Basically on the concepts of Multi-zone induction wok — IGBT zone switching, PID temperature control, and zone-level wall temperature sensing. I have specific requirements like the below

• Mutual coupling between concentric coil zones — has anyone implemented DSP-based cross-talk cancellation on a dome coil?
• IR thermopile at 3–8mm range looking upward at a SS vessel base — emissivity calibration approach?
• PID tuning for a large thermal mass vessel — any practical experience with anti-windup strategies for induction heating?

Attaching few files for your reference. Kindly suggest some practical design implementations and any leads who can render technical support at India

Have you considered Fuzzy Logic control, which does not have a integrator that is subject to windup.
Fuzzy Logic also can generally handle non-linear and hysteresis system characteristics better than PID which your system is likely to have, as PID is predicated on the system having a linear response.
Here's a tutorial on Fuzzy Logic, if interested.
