Online assessment of winding deformation based on optimised excitation

TLDR
On line assessment of winding deformation in a power transformer can be performed via a bushing tap excitation with optimized high frequency excitation through a benchmark layer winding to validate the suitability of the technique.
Abstract
On line assessment of winding deformation in a power transformer can be performed via a bushing tap excitation with optimized high frequency excitation. A benchmark layer winding is used to validate the use of the specific high frequency excitation. Axial displacement, compression and buckling of the winding are simulated and the changes identified. Measurements are performed on a voltage transformer to verify the suitability of the technique. The procedure will result in a considerably shorter time for measurement.

A general method for determining resonances in transformer windings

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a method for calculating terminal and internal impedance versus frequency for a lumped parameter model of a transformer, where the transformer's total frequency response can be accurately determined from this impedance data directly, i.e., the terminal resonance and anti-resonance and internal amplification factor characteristic can be calculated for a single or three-phase transformer model.
