We consider mixed problems for the Kirchhoff elastic and thermoelastic systems, subject to boundary control in the clamped boundary conditions BC (clamped control). If w denotes the elastic displacement and θ the temperature, we establish sharp regularity of {w,wt ,wtt } in the elastic case, and of {w,wt ,wtt ,θ} in the thermoelastic case. Our results complement those by Lagnese and Lions (1988...

DGA (Dissolved Gas Analysis) is the traditional transformer fault diagnosis method, but it mainly depends on the experience of operators. In order to solve the limitations of traditional method, this paper introduces intelligent method for fault diagnosis of transformer. The intelligent method made fusion of various data, including SCADA data, oil dissolved gas sensor data, related electrical t...

In this paper, a model predictive framework is used to optimize the operation and maintenance actions of power system equipment based on the predicted health sate of this equipment. In particular, this framework is used to predict the health state of transformers based on their usage. The health state of a transformer is hereby given by the hot-spot temperature of the paper insulation of the tr...

The objective of this research is to compute the mechanical stresses in power transformer resulting from the currents more than rated value during its operation. Due to this high fault current, mechanical stresses are produced indifferent directions which may cause the damage of winding insulation. Various techniques have been adopted to analyze the stresses on transformer windings. For the acc...

A new primary-side-assisted zero-voltage and zerocurrent switching full bridge dc–dc converter with transformer isolation is proposed. The proposed dc–dc converter uses only one auxiliary transformer and two diodes to obtain ZCS for the leading leg. It has a simple and robust structure, and load current control capability even in short circuit conditions. Possibility of magnetic saturation due ...

The internal faults of transformer can be identified by various techniques. The proposed technique is by the analysis of no-load current and harmonic contents present in it. The no-load current of transformer is non-sinusoidal for sinusoidal input voltage. And hence it contains harmonics in healthy condition of transformer. But if transformer has any internal fault then the no-load current magn...

Based on natural ventilation design scheme for main transformer room of an indoor substation, different air distribution schemes were obtained by changing height and size of air inlets and outlets. Three-dimensional simulation of air distribution was conducted for the transformer room by using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) method. Ventilation & cooling effect of different indoor ventilatio...

With the rapid development of power electronics technology, the applications of inductively coupled power transfer make the wireless power transmission reality. In order to explore the practical application in the field of ICPT, we analysis the core component of a loosely coupled transformer of ICPT and design it. We make a model and simulate the core magnetic field distribution of the loosely ...

Transformer fault diagnosis is an interesting subject for plant operators due to its criticality in power systems. There are several international standards available to interpret power transformer faults based on dissolved gas analysis. In certain cases these standards are not able to provide correct diagnosis. There are several soft computing techniques available for modelling transformer fau...

This paper deals with diagnostic methods of the internal faults in power transformers. The diagnostic process uses some of the current diagnosis methods (e.g. oil test, dissolved gases analysis (DGA), partial discharge (PD), etc.) to determine the condition of the transformer. In this process, the most frequent diagnostic methods were listed and applied practically to be compared. A conventiona...
