IntroductionThe number of non-linear loads which draw non-sinusoidal currents even if fed with sinusoidal voltage -connected to the power supply system is large and is continuing to grow rapidly. These currents can bedef

Higher losses mean that more heat is generatedin the transfo

This factor is calculatedaccording to the harmonic spectrum of the load current and is an indication of the additional eddy currentload losses. It reflects the excess losses experienced in a tradi
5、tional wire wound transformer.Modern transformers use alternative winding designs such as foil windings or mixed wire/foil windings.B). Transformer lossesTransformer losses consists of no-load (or core loss) and load losses. This can be expressed by the equationbelow.where:PC = core or no-load loss,
6、PLL = load lossPT = total loss.Core or no-load loss is due to the voltage excitation of the core. Although the magnetizing current doesinclude harmonics, these are extremely small compared with the load current and their effect on the lossesis minimal. Load losses are made up of I R loss, eddy curre

It is also called ohmic loss ordc ohm
8、ic loss. The ohmic loss is proportional to the square of the magnitude of the load current,including the harmonic components, but is independent of the frequency. It is determined by measuringthe dc resistance and calculating the resulting loss using the winding currents at full load.There are no te

Instead, the total stray and eddy current loss is determinedby determining the total load loss and subtracting the calculated ohmic losses, i.e.,The eddy current loss i

At the ends of the winding the flux field bends and the larger dimension of the rectangular conductoris perpendicular to a vector component of the leakage flux fie

Using Foil windings or multiple strands per winding reduces both eddy current loss.Stray loss occurs due to the stray flux which intro

For dry-type transformersincreased temperatures in these regions do not contribute to an increase in the winding hot spot temperature. Stray losses are diffic

Transformers and K-factorThere are different approaches to accounting for additional losses in selecting a transformer. Here we would suggest the w

Once the K-factor of the load isknown, it is a simple matter to specify a transformer with a higher K-rating from the standard range of 4, 9,13, 20, 30, 40, 50.Note that a pure linear load one that draws a sin
