The power converter that feeds high-frequency, highvoltage transformers must be carefully designed due to parasitic components, mainly the secondary winding capacitance and the leakage inductance, that introduces resonances in relatively lowfrequency range, next to the switching frequency. This paper considers applications in which the load (resistive) has an unpredictable behavior, changing fr...

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...

Magnetic characteristics of the iron cores affect significantly the steady and transient performances of the transformers. Due to nonlinear and multi-values characteristics, modeling of the hysteresis behavior of a magnetic material is principally complicated. In general the conventional methods yield to inaccurate results , particularly when are employed to model a transient phenomena. Scalar ...

This thesis describes how to provide standardized, current based, differential protection for any three-phase power transformer, including phase-shifting transformers with variable phase angle shift and transformers of all construction types and internal on-load tap-changer configurations. The use of standard transformer differential protection for such applications is considered impossible in ...

A high ratio (winding ratio of 1:80) pulse transformer with a modular ferrite core was developed for a repetitive resonant charging system. The magnetic core is constructed from 68 small blocks of ferrites, glued together by epoxy resin. This allows a high degree of freedom in choosing core shape and size. Critical issues related to this modular design are the size tolerance of the individual f...
