Abstract
This reference illustrates the interaction and operation of transformer and system components and spans more than two decades of technological advancement to provide an updated perspective on the increasing demands and requirements of the modern transformer industry. Guiding engineers through everyday design challenges and difficulties such as stray loss estimation and control, prediction of winding hot spots, and calculation of various stress levels and performance figures, the book propagates the use of advanced computational tools for the optimization and quality enhancement of power system transformers and encompasses every key aspect of transformer function, design, and engineering.
