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...

The main purpose of this study is to analyze the current leakage of the power grid due to the change in speed of high-speed rail (HSR). First, using PSIM software as the fundamental basis, this study constructed an overall HSR circuit-based model system, including Scott transformer, auto-transformer, and the track equivalent circuit and grounding system. In addition, this paper sought to study ...

The paper documents a new transformer model in ATPDraw called XFMR. This model handles 3-phase transformers with two or three windings. Autotransformers and all Wye and Delta couplings are supported. The model includes an inverse inductance matrix for the leakage description, optional frequency dependent winding resistance, capacitive coupling, and a topologically correct core model (3and 5-leg...

This paper cover the analysis and construction of current to voltage transducer based on Rogowski coil which satisfy the requirements of high-accuracy measurement of AC current (up to 20 A at power supply frequency, with the aiming uncertainty of 100 parts per million). Primary source of ac current uncertainty measured by this type of transducer is nonuniform density of turns which, in case of ...

A differential LC-VCO that adopts a transformer with asymmetric turns-ratio has been proposed. The asymmetric turns-ratio of the transformer leads to the suppression of the AM to FM conversion which is caused by the 1/f noise of the current source transistor. The analysis of the proposed scheme and the improvement in phase noise compare to conventional CMOS LC-VCOs are described. The transforme...

The purpose of this paper is to present and discuss a general HV topology of the solid-state Marx modulator, for unipolar or bipolar generation connected with a step-up transformer to increase the output voltage applied to a resistive load. Due to the use of an output transformer, discussion about the reset of the transformer is made to guarantee zero average voltage applied to the primary. It ...
