Summary/Abstract: The current paper presents an approach for designing a complex electromagnetic system consisting of an inductor and a workpiece. The approach is based on known methodologies and includes numerical methods for modelling. Using this approach, a methodology for designing the geometry of the inductor, based on the geometry of the workpiece, is suggested. The methodology can be used to develop designs with uniform temperature field, improved quality of the heating process and increased energy efficiency. Experimental study that verifies the advantages of the methodology is presented
