Effect of Coil Width on Deformed Shape and Processing Efficiency during Ship Hull Forming by Induction Heating

The main hull of a ship is made up of a large number of plates with complex curvatures. Line heating is one of the main approaches used in the forming of a ship hull plate. Because line heating is based on manual heating using a handheld oxyacetylene gun, the typical heating width is extremely narro...
