Abstract
A model is examined in order to predict the behaviour of a granular be d made with conductive particles subjected to an inductive electromagn etic field. The model shows how heat generated in the bed can be descr ibed by its electric impedance for the high-frequency generator requir ed for inductive heating. Once the relationship between electrical cha racteristics and power dissipation has been established, comparisons b etween experimental and theoretical results are presented and the vali dity of the model is discussed.
