Downhole induction heater

An induction heater is proposed for melting paraffin deposits formed in borehole columns filled with borehole liquid. The heater includes an inductor joined essentially with a control module enclosing electronic components. The inductor includes a non-metallic protective cover enclosing particularly an induction coil heating up a heating rod with a tip that melts paraffin deposits. The protective cover provides free propagation of HF-magnetic field created by the coil, which also heats up the column's walls melting paraffin thereon. An internal cavity is formed particularly by surfaces of the protective cover, tip, induction coil, etc., and communicates with an elastic compensator. The cavity is filled with liquid filler allowing the inductor to withstand high pressure of the borehole liquid. Surplus of the filler formed in the cavity due to volumetric temperature expansion flows essentially into the compensator. Embodiments envisage regulating the heater's temperature, and operating the inductor at a resonance frequency.
