“To quote from a section entitled 'Induction Heating' from an electrical engineering textbook: A rod of solid metal or any electrical conductor, when subjected to an alternating magnetic field, has electromotive forces set up in it. These electromotive forces cause what are known as 'eddy currents.' A rise in temperature results from 'eddy currents.' Induction heating is a common method of melting metals in a foundry.”
