Abstract

A heating device for heating underground soil comprising a work-coil housed in a conductive casing, wherein when at least one driving current is supplied to the work-coil, whereby the work-coil generates at least one magnetic field that induces at least one induced current in the casing. The driving currents are of a frequency sufficiently high to cause the induced currents to generate resistance in the casing, thereby increasing the temperature of the casing. A plurality of the heating devices may be arranged in an array to facilitate the heating of a zone of soil.
