Abstract
Transverse flux heating of strip material is effected with a flux distribution having a low value near the margins of the strip and rising substantially uniformly inwardly from the margins to a central peak value for narrow strip or two peaks with a central lower flux region for wider strip. Constructions of pole pieces to achieve the required flux distribution are described.
