This paper deals with the problem of the leakage inductance calculations in power transformers. Commonly, the leakage flux in the air zone is represented by short-circuit inductance, which determines the short-circuit voltage, which is a very important factor for power transformers. That inductance is a good representation of the typical power transformer windings, but it is insufficient for multi-winding ones. This paper presents simple formulae for self- and mutual leakage inductance calculations for an arbitrary pair of windings. It follows from a simple 1D approach to analyzing the stray field using a discrete differential operator, and it was verified by the finite element method (FEM) calculation results.

The short-circuit electromagnetic force in radial direction induces critical mechanical stress on a power transformer. In this paper, the radial short-circuit forces which are exerted on transformer low voltage (LV) windings are investigated. Firstly, the mechanisms of leakage flux and short-circuit electromechanical forces in transformer coils are analyzed. Afterwards, based on IEC standards followed by short-circuit tests, calculations of radial short-circuit forces and evaluations of the ability to withstand short currents in LV windings are developed. The case studies and comparisons with improved measures show that the evaluation and calculation method is feasible and effective, and this method also offers three useful ways to strengthen the ability to withstand short-circuit currents for transformer windings.
