This paper describes an experience in transformer modeling based on open-circuit test data obtained for a wide range of terminal voltages and inrush current measurements that were carried out for different residual fluxes of a 300 kVA transformer. The core type transformer model is based on a dynamic hysteresis model which is employed individually in the legs and yokes. We start with the case where the core geometry and winding turns are known when fitting the model. The method proposed is then extended to the case where only the nameplate data and the measured no-load losses and currents are available. For this latter case, an optimization model fitting is developed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
