Abstract
Modelling procedure for the process of induction heating of large-diameter pipes before welding is considered. The choice of a software package for modelling is substantiated, and an example of modelling is given. The pattern of temperature field in the weld zone and plots of temperature distribution in the pipe wall are described. An example of embodiment of the induction heating unit is given.
