	%X This paper presents the study of induced currents and
temperature distribution in gear heated by induction process using 2D
finite element (FE) model. The model is developed by coupling
Maxwell and heat transfer equations into a multi-physics model. The
obtained results allow comparing the medium frequency (MF) and
high frequency (HF) cases and the effect of machine parameters on
the evolution of induced currents and temperature during heating.
The sensitivity study of the temperature profile is conducted and the
case hardness is predicted using the final temperature profile. These
results are validated using tests and give a good understanding of
phenomena during heating process.
