This paper focuses on the study of the induction heating process of a camshaft in a marine diesel engine. A three-dimensional finite element model for dynamic induction heating is established using the finite element method of multi-physical field coupling, aiming to investigate the temperature uniformity of the cam during this process. Three elements are analyzed in this study: the moving speed, the gap between the induction coil and the workpiece, and the width of the induction coil. These factors allow for an analysis of the temperature distribution in the thickness direction and contour line direction of the cam under various conditions. On this basis, an equivalent parameter about the temperature uniformity in the thickness direction of the cam is proposed to guide the selection of the camshaft induction heating process parameters.
