The delta primary transposed zigzag secondary (DTz) transformer has been designed and used to reduce the bad impacts of the harmonic in the distribution power system. The DTz transformer is constructed with delta connection in primary winding and the three transposed windings at the different core legs of secondary winding. The harmonic reduction method of the DTz transformer applies two basic ...

The power supply analysis and design results of Sherman and Hamacher are extended to include approximate solutions to the nonlinear equations that define the rectifier turn-on angles. Additionally, peak rectifier current solely as a function of ripple factor, as well as the inverse relationship, i.e., ripple factor as a function of peak rectifier current, are also provided. Simplified exact equ...

A new hybrid-model for BCI probe is derived . This model is built based on the probe's internal structure without refinements, and by carrying out just one electrical measurement for the reflection coefficient, so that it can be generalized and used in studying the effect of layout parameters in the aim of improving the probe high frequency performance, which helps the developer in design stage...

Photovoltaic systems integrated to the grid have received considerable attention around the world. They can be connected to the electrical grid via galvanic isolation (transformer) or without it (transformerless). Despite making galvanic isolation, low frequency transformer increases size, cost and losses. On the other hand, transformerless PV systems increase the leakage current (common-mode c...

In this paper, a differential protection schemes using fuzzy inference system (FIS) for power transformer protection is presented. First we review the concept of differential protection, and illustrate the magnetizing inrush current as they belong to the causes of the protection maloperation. Then relay logic and the algorithm that uses Discreet Fourier transformer for extraction of fundamental...

This paper takes a typical 220 kV three-phase three-limb oil-immersed transformer as an example, this paper building transient field-circuit coupled model and 3D coupled magneto -fluid-thermal model. Considering a nonlinear B–H curve, the magneto model uses the field-circuit coupled finite element method (FEM) to calculate the magnetic flux distribution of the core and the current distribution ...

In the last years controlled switching became an effective method to reduce switching transients which is documented by several publications – especially of CIGRE. Controlled switching is most commonly used for switching capacitor banks. Even though uncontrolled energisation of power transformers can lead to very high inrush current transients whose maximum values can exceed many times the rate...

This project presents reactive power compensation in a distribution power system. DSTATCOM (distribution static compensator) is a reactive power compensator for power quality improvement in a three phase four wire distribution system. A voltage source converter (VSC) based DSTATCOM with a zig-zag transformer is used for the compensation of reactive power for voltage regulation along with load b...

In many text books and papers such as [1]-[5], it is possible to find descriptions about shunt fault calculations and about the influence of the three-phase transformer connection Dyn on the fault currents distribution through distribution transformers. In [6] is described a method for digitally simulating a three-phase power system which is subjected to a fault at one location with blown fuse ...
