The study of phased-ultrasonic receiving-planar array transducer for PD location in power transformer
نویسندگان
چکیده
Partial discharge (PD) is the main cause of electric equipment degradation. PD location can provide the scientific direction and analysis for equipment condition monitoring. The phased-ultrasonic receiving-planar array transducer for PD location in transformer is studied in this paper. The operation environment and material properties of transducer are analyzed. The center frequency of transducer is 150 kHz and its bandwidth is 100 kHz. The piezoelectric source and oil interstitial defect are used to detect the transducer’s performance in lab. Experimental results show the transducer has perfect ultrasonic receiving characteristics. The successful developments of this sensor provide a good foundation for PD location in transformer using phased-ultrasonic receiving-planar array transducer. Streszczenie.

Time-of-flight diffraction method (ToFD) is an amplitude-independent sizing method which is based on the measurement of time-of-flight of defect tip diffracted waves. Although ToFD can measure through-wall length of defect accurately, this method is not capable of measuring horizontal defect size. In this paper, a new ToFD method for evaluating horizontal planar defects is presented. The finite...
