An electronic current transformer with a B-dot sensor is proposed in this study. The B-dot sensor can realize the current measurement of the transmission line in a non-contact way in accordance with the principle of magnetic field coupling. The multiple electrodes series-opposing structure is applied together with differential input structures and active integrating circuits, which can allow th...

The largest loss in an example litz-wire flyback transformer is found during current commutation between windings. In order to reduce this loss, a new optimization method is introduced. The new method optimizes strand size and number in litz wire considering cost and loss. Unlike previous methods, it is valid with twoor three-dimensional field geometry and with different non-sinusoidal waveform...

Practical aspects of design and application radio frequency (RF) transformers in an ultrasonic system excitation channel are analysed. Design steps are discussed for those willing to design their own transformer an for excitation channel. Investigation has been carried out on what generator parameters can be obtained if instead of a purely active output stage the impedance matching RF transform...

Solid-state transformer (SST); Medium frequency transformer; AC/AC converter; Matrix converter Abstract This paper presents a novel topology of solid-state transformer (SST). In the design process, the AC/DC, DC/AC and AC/AC converters have been integrated to achieve higher efficiency. To obtain higher efficiency from other SST with DC-link topologies, the AC/DC and DC/AC converters have been i...

Three-phase synchronous motors are widely used in the industrial motor driven systems. Variable frequency drives (VFDs) which allow soft-start of motors produce PWM voltage. Numerical relays are used in the protection schemes of these high voltage motors. The location of current transformer (CT) is an important criterion in the protection circuit. Impact of harmonics and the location of current...

Fast and very fast transient overvoltages generally appear during switching operations within electrical substations. The oscillatory nature of such phenomena with frequencies that can reach several tens megahertz tends to degrade the lifetime high voltage equipment as bushings transformers, inducing partial discharges activity or breakdown insulation system. According case studies, are one mos...
