• This paper presents some aspects of the numerical modeling performed in order to study the process of induction heating applied to a workpiece, using Flux 2D and FEMM (Finite Element Method Magnetics), two software tools specifically designed for electromagnetic simulations. The paper presents a significant technical finding regarding the optimal shape of the surface hardening head. Various shapes of the inductor were analyzed, focusing on solving the eddy current problem using the commercial program FEMM. The induction heating process was numerically simulated using the FLUX 2D program for a semi-finished punch made of OLC 45 steel, specifically for hot surface heat treatment. The simulations were conducted utilizing the program's simulation capabilities.
