Return Map of the Transformer Magnetizing Current Caused by DC Interrupted Excitations

A flux-coupled ac/dc magnetizing device.

We report on an instrument for applying ac and dc magnetic fields by capturing the flux from a rotating permanent magnet and projecting it between two adjustable pole pieces. This can be an alternative to standard electromagnets for experiments with small samples or in probe stations in which an applied magnetic field is needed locally, with advantages that include a compact form-factor, very l...

Support Vector Machine for Discrimination Between Fault and Magnetizing Inrush Current in Power Transformer

This study presents a novel technique based on Support Vector Machine (SVM) for the classification of transient phenomena in power transformer. The SVM is a powerful method for statistical classification of data. The input data to this SVM for training comprises fault current and magnetizing inrush current. SVM classifier produces significant accuracy for classification of transient phenomena i...

Multi-field Coupling Simulation and Experimental Study on Transformer Vibration Caused by DC Bias

DC bias will cause abnormal vibration of transformers. Aiming at such a problem, transformer vibration affected by DC bias has been studied combined with transformer core and winding vibration mechanism use multi-physical field simulation software COMSOL in this paper. Furthermore the coupling model of electromagnetic-structural force field has been established, and the variation pattern of inn...

Generation of highly stable DC current by using a superconducting transformer

The purpose of this study is to generate a highly stable DC current by using a superconducting transformer. For the first trial stage, a 100 A class superconducting transformer was designed and fabricated for operation at the temperature of liquid nitrogen. The secondary coil of the transformer was wound with a superconducting Bi-2223 tape, and the turn ratio of the primary and secondary windin...
