Overvoltage distribution along the transformer winding must be uniform to certify the safety of the operation of the power transformer. Influence of the parameters variation on the impulse voltage distribution (IVD) in disk winding transformer is going to be analyzed which hasn’t been analyzed on this type of winding in the previous papers. In this research, a transformer with disk winding and ...

Abstract In this work, the non-liner voltage distribution in transformer winding is investigated that occurs due switching and lightning. Transformer winding is modeled in the alternative transients program (ATP) version of Electromagnetic transients program (EMTPRV). EMTP software is used to simulate the very fast transient overvoltage. An experimental setup that consist of , Recurrent surge g...

At high frequency, the winding losses of power transformer due to skin and proximity effects becomes a significant component in the loss calculation of the transformer efficiency. This paper examines the winding losses associated with these effects for planar-type low-profile transformers that are suitable for high frequency high density soft switching power supply application. The transformer ...

Modal parameters of power transformer winding are closely related to transformer manufacturing and detection technology of winding deformation based on vibration analysis method. Aimed at identifying the modal parameters of transformer winding accurately, a modal experiment is designed and made on a real 10 kV power transformer. An improved Empirical Mode Decomposition (EMD) algorithm is propos...

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...

Certain level of mechanical deformations in winding does not hamper the normal performance of power transformer. However, such incipient deformations if unattended could result in permanent failure of transformer. To this end, an approach is proposed to assess the severity of mechanical deformations in transformer winding. These deformations get reflected as changes in its high frequency behavi...
