This paper addresses the problem of allocating high-voltage transformer spares throughout the electric grid to mitigate the risk of random transformer failures. With this application we investigate the use of approximate dynamic programming (ADP) for solving large scale stochastic facility location problems. The ADP algorithms that we develop consistently obtain near optimal solutions for probl...

This article introduces a physics-based real-time model of the output chain of a vacuum-tube amplifier. This output chain consists of a single-ended triode power amplifier stage, output transformer, and a loudspeaker. The simulation algorithm uses wave digital filters in digitizing the physical electric, mechanic, and acoustic subsystems. New simulation models for the output transformer and lou...

This paper describes vibration diagnosis based on electric faults. These faults could appear in electrical equipment in general, but this paper focuses on the case of transformer, induction and dc motor. In order to do the diagnosis there are analysed vibration signals from the piezoelectric accelerometer. This accelerometer is installed on the frame of the equipment. The signals acquired are a...

Reliable and continued performance of power Transformer is the key to profitable generation and transmission of electric power. Failure of a large power transformer not only results in the loss of very expensive equipment, but it can cause significant guarantied damage as well. Replacement of that transformer can take up to a year if the failure is not disastrous and can result in tremendous re...

High peak loads at transformer stations in domestic residences are expected where heating is provided merely by heat pumps with additional electric heating. Two scenarios are studied: the event of a black start and high electricity demand on a day with a very low outdoor temperature. The simulation is done with agents representing up to 100 dwellings based on PowerMatcher technology. The result...

The high voltage capability, compact size, and high output impedance of piezoelectric transformers makes them very attractive primary high voltage supplies for charged particle beam applications. This paper will present and contrast recent results utilizing piezoelectric transformers to accelerate electrons and ions, to produce x-rays and neutrons for imaging and active interrogation and to pro...

The traditional grid-connected PV inverter includes either a line frequency or a high frequency transformer between the inverter and grid. The transformer provides galvanic isolation between the grid and the PV panels. In order to increase the efficiency, to reduce the size and cost, the effective solution is to remove the isolation transformer. It leads to appearance of common mode (CM) ground...
