Turn to turn fault is one of the major internal failures in the power transformers that if it is not quickly detected, can be extended and led to a complete transformer breakdown. So, the diagnosis and location of the turn to turn fault of the power transformer, as one of the most important equipment in the power system, is the main objective of this paper. For this purpose, a detailed model of...

In the power system voltage sag become the important issue for industries. According to the survey 92% of the interruptions at industrial installations are voltage sag related. In various companies voltage sag may affect many manufactures and introduce sufficient losses in the power system. The voltage sag compensator, based on a transformer coupled series connected voltage source inverter, is ...

To date, programs available for the simulation of electromagnetic transients in power components and networks do not include transformer winding models able to simulate an impulse test response. This is an important omission, since the standard impulse test defines for most cases the highest dielectric stress that a power transformer will suffer once installed. In this work, two transformer win...

Vibration signal analysis method is one of effective methods to monitor the condition of transformer windings and core. In this paper, the multi-channels vibration measurement system is set up and the vibration signals on the oil-tank surface of running transformer in the field are measured. The influences of transformer type and sensor positions on the measured vibration signals are analyzed. ...

In this research is presented a method for technological capabilities assessment in a company in transformer industry. Used and discussed criteria in this technique are merely developed to assess technological capabilities in transformer industry. Based on literature, technological capabilities in transformer industry are divided into three main categories: production capability, development an...

Electromagnetic forces in power transformer windings are produced by interaction between the leakage fluxes and current passing them. Since the leakage flux distribution along the windings height is in two axial and radial directions, so the electromagnetic forces have two components, radial and axial. There is a risk that a large electromagnetic force due to the short circuit or inrush current...

Low-power dichroic halogen lamps, usually used for display lighting, have low-voltage filament. The lightweight electronic transformer (ET), based on self-oscillating half-bridge high frequency inverter, are used to replace bulky and heavy conventional 50160 Hz step-down transformer. But their lamp current are rectangular like shape, leading to generate high electromagnetic noise and increase t...

High-frequency loss in transformer windings using stranded wire is analyzed. A complete loss prediction method is presented. The interstrand resistivity, which is an important parameter to determine the power loss, is measured experimentally. The analytical model is solved to get an optimal pitch, which specifies the degree of twisting that results in minimum loss. A transformer using a strande...
