The behavior of three phase five leg transformer under voltage sag is studied in this paper. This paper proposes a simple, practical model of a three phase-five leg, saturated transformer with accurate performance. Transformer saturation is produced when the voltage sag is recovered and it causes inrush current in transformer. Effects of voltage sag depth, duration and initial point on wave hav...

DC bias current flowing into the neutral point of power transformer will seriously affect the normal operation of AC power system. In this paper, exciting current, harmonic component of the excitation current, magnetic flux density and noise of transformer were analyzed when the transformer is in the no-load operation state based on field-circuit coupled method. Through the calculation and anal...

This paper proposes a new method to detect transformer inside incipient fault current using transformer internal parameters to determine the inside structure of transformer at good condition or bad. A transformer model was established by Jiles– Atherton theory using measured voltage and current and the initial parameters which were found using Genetic Algorithm (GA). Then, transformer internal ...

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...

The paper investigates the behavior of four transformer models in electromagnetic transients programs (EMTP) when calculating inrush currents due to shell-type transformers energization. These models are single-phase Saturable Transformer (STC), BCTRAN, Hybrid Transformer (XFMR) and UMEC. The measurements of a real transformer energization performed by EDF in France are used to evaluate the acc...

This paper presents a current transformer model that is useful on low frequency applications. To describe the iron core magnetic behaviour of the iron core, a hysteresis model is proposed, which is able to generate minor asymmetric loops and remanent flux. The effects of classic eddy current losses and anomalous losses are represented by linear and nonlinear resistors, respectively. The obtaine...

Airport ground lighting (AGL) systems provide visual reference to aircrafts during airport operations. In AGL systems, constant current regulators feed a beacon circuit supplied through isolation transformers. Component modeling is necessary to simulate AGL systems, and thus characterize and predict their behavior. This paper presents an isolation transformer model including transformer core sa...
