1. An induction coil system, comprising:
a coiled fluid tube configured to carry a fluid;
a coiled wire configured to carry electric current, wherein the electric current in the coiled wire generates a magnetizing inductance to inductively heat the fluid tube;
a capsule between the coiled fluid tube and the coiled wire; and
a cooling fluid supply configured to force a cooling fluid through the capsule across the coiled wire.
