Frequently Asked Questions (13)
Q2. What are the future works in "Analysis of very fast transients in layer-type transformer windings" ?
Developing an equivalent lumped parameter model will be a useful challenge for the future. Additional work will be done to include the full frequency-dependent core losses.
Q3. What is the way to calculate the interturn and interlayer voltages?
When fast surges reach the transformer terminal, interturn and interlayer insulation might suffer severe stress because of the amplitude and the steepness of the voltage transients.
Q4. What is the effect of the frequency-dependent core losses on the inductance matrix?
To observe transients with a longer period of time, which have oscillation with different frequencies such as restrikes in the CBs during switching transformers, the influence of the frequency-dependent core losses must be taken into account.
Q5. What is the easiest way to determine the inductance matrix?
The easiest way to determine the inductance matrix is to calculate the elements from the capacitance matrix(9)where the velocity of the wave propagation is calculated by(10)and and are the speed of light in vacuum and the equivalent dielectric constant of the transformer insulation, and N is the number of turns in a layer.
Q6. What is the ideal way to compute voltages in a transformer?
Distribution transformers are normally constructed with a large number of turns, and it would be ideal to compute voltages in every turn by representing each turn as a separate line.
Q7. How can the large matrix be reduced?
The large matrix can be reduced by applying a matrix reduction method based on the preservation of the same flux in the group of turns [21].
Q8. How were the capacitances between the primary and secondary windings calculated?
Capacitances between layers and capacitance between the primary and the secondary winding were calculated straightforwardly by treating the layers as a cylindrical capacitor.
Q9. What is the difference between the two matrices?
since the verylarge dimensions of the matrix prevent the voltages in each turn from being solved at one and the same time, a matrix reduction can be applied [21], [22] so that the order of matrices corresponds not to a single turn but to a group of turns.
Q10. What is the problem with the MTLM model?
This implies that the model has to operate with matrices that contain a huge number of elements, which is too large tobe stored in the average memory of presently available desktop computers.
Q11. How can the authors calculate the capacitances of the layers?
The inductances can also be calculated by using the basic formulas for self- and mutual inductances of the turns [22], the so-called Maxwell formulas.
Q12. What is the effect of the transformer on the terminal impedance?
The measurements of the terminal impedance characteristic follow that no resonance frequencies in the high-frequency region for this particular transformer exist.
Q13. What is the difference between the two capacitances?
The fact that the ground capacitances have a small value means that the phase-to-ground capacitance at the high-voltage side can be calculated as a series connection of the interlayer capacitances.
