In order to assess the electromagnetic characteristics of ultra-high voltage (UHV) transformers under DC Bias, a specifically designed scaling transformer is considered for the measurement of the actual distorted exciting current. Meanwhile, the equivalent numerical model based on the Finite element method (FEM) and the field-circuit coupled modelling is adopted. The comparison between the measure...Show More
Power transformer is a key equipment in power system. Ensuring the safety operation of transformer is beneficial to decrease the economic loss and casualties. In this paper, twice short-circuit impulse tests are performed on a 10kV transformer. After each test, frequency response analysis (FRA) measurements based on two different terminal connection schemes, namely end to end voltage ratio (EE) an...Show More
The safe operation of power transformers is of great significance to the stability of the power system. Radial stability of windings is an important issue for transformer design and maintenance. This paper presents an effective method to analyze the radial stability of windings. The electromagnetic characteristics of a 110 kV two-winding power transformer is calculated and analyzed by finite eleme...Show More
This paper introduces an elemental operator with biaxial anisotropy to simulate the scalar hysteresis phenomenon of the ferromagnetic materials. The equilibrium position of the magnetization for the elemental operator can be determined by energy minimization. To directly describe the magnetic properties of each operator, an improved analytical expression is deduced by the partial approximate subst...Show More
As a reliable and non-destructive technique, frequency response analysis (FRA) has been widely recognized for transformer winding deformation detection and assessment. In this paper, frequency response functions (FRFs) are obtained by two different FRA measurement connection ways, namely, end-to-end voltage ratio (EE) and transfer voltage (TF) ratio measurements. At the same time, according to the...Show More
