At present, the detection of transformer winding deformation faults is carried out in an offline state, which requires the transformer to cooperate with the implementation of planned power outages, or it takes place after the sudden failure of the transformer when it is out of operation. It is difficult to obtain the status information of the windings online in time. Since the transformer will suffer very fast transient overvoltage (VFTO) impact during operation, combined with the principle of the frequency response method, an online detection method of transformer winding deformation based on VFTO is proposed. In order to study the frequency response characteristics of transformer winding under the impact of VFTO, the generation process of VFTO is simulated by simulation software, and the equivalent circuit model of transformer winding before and after deformation is established. The VFTO signal is injected into the transformer circuit model as an excitation source, and the changes of resonant frequencies of frequency response curve under different deformation types and different deformation degrees of winding are analyzed. The simulation results show that the frequency response curves of different winding deformation types are different. Different deformation degrees are simulated by increasing the radial capacitance by 4%, 13%, and 23%, series inductance by 2%, 4%, and 6%, and longitudinal capacitance by 3%, 6%, and 9%, and the change of resonance frequencies can comprehensively reflect the deformation information of winding. At the same time, the tests of different deformation types and deformation degrees of the simulated winding are carried out. The results show that with the deepening of the change degree of the simulated fault inductance value, the frequency response curve shifts to the low-frequency direction, confirming the feasibility of the online detection method of transformer winding deformation based on VFTO.

In this paper, a novel method based on FRA is proposed to detect both the fault and the deformation type. Firstly, a model of the transformer winding is established based on the electrical properties of winding. Secondly, as the winding frequency response curve change in accordance with the change of the parameters of winding model, the rule of the variation of winding frequency response curve is drawn out based on the model above. Thirdly, the effect of various types of winding deformation on the changes of the parameters of transformer winding model is summarized. Finally, an experimental example of the diagnosis of deformation type is conducted on a testing transformer based on the analysis of frequency response curves, hence the validation of the correctness of the simulation results.

Frequency response analysis is widely used to diagnose transformer winding deformation faults due to its high sensitivity, strong anti-interference capability, and equipment portability, but the results of frequency response analysis can be affected by insulation aging and moisture in the transformer, leading to errors in the diagnosis of winding deformation faults. Currently, there is no effective method to prevent such errors. This paper focuses on optimizing the criterion for diagnosing winding deformations when insulation aging and moisture are present. First, the winding frequency response curves of oil-paper insulation were determined by combining insulation aging and moisture tests of the oil-paper insulation with frequency response simulations of the transformer winding. Next, the winding deformation criterion predicting the likelihood and extent of errors diagnosing transformer winding deformations due to the insulation aging and moisture content is discussed. Finally, the corresponding criterion optimization method is proposed. The corresponding results show that insulation aging and moisture can lead to errors when using the correlation coefficient R criterion to diagnose the transformer winding deformations. Moreover, the possibility of winding deformation errors caused by the change of insulation state can be reduced by introducing the corresponding auxiliary criterion through comparing the capacitance change rate based on the frequency response method and that based on the dielectric spectrum method.

In this brief note, the effects of model reduction on the stability boundaries of control systems with parameter variations, and the limit-cycle characteristics of nonlinear control systems are investigated. In order to reduce these effects, a method of model reduction is used which can approximate the original transfer function at S=0, S=∞, and also match some selected points on the frequency response curve of the original transfer function. Examples are given, and comparisons with the methods given in current literature are made.

Abstract The detection of transformer winding deformation caused by short-circuit current is of great significance to the realization of condition based maintenance. Considering the influence of environment and measurement errors, an online deformation detection method is proposed based on the analysis of leakage inductance changes. First, the operation expressions are derived on the basis of the equivalent circuit and the leakage inductance parameters are identified by the partial least squares regression algorithm. Second, the amount of the leakage inductance samples in a detection time window is determined using the Monte Carlo simulation thought, and then the samples in the confidence interval are obtained. Last, a criteria is built by the mean value changes of the leakage inductance samples and the winding deformation is detected. The online detection method considers the random fluctuation characteristics of the leakage inductance samples, adjust the threshold value automatically, and can quantify the change range to assess the severity. Based on the field data, the distribution of the leakage inductance samples is analyzed to obey the normal function approximately. Three deformation experiments are done by different sub-winding connections and the detection results verify the effectiveness of the proposed method

In this paper, laminated composite materials were hybridized with fibers (E-glass) and shape memory alloy wires which considered a smart material. The effect of changing frequency on the (acceleration- frequency) response curve, the damping ratio of the vibration modes, the natural frequencies of the vibration mode, the effect of shape memory alloy wires number on the damping characteristics were studied. Hand lay-up technique was used to prepare the specimens, epoxy resin type was used as a matrix reinforced by fiber, E-glass. The specimens were manufactured by stacking 2 layers of fibers. Shape memory alloy, type Nitinol (nickel-titanium) having a diameter (1 and 2mm), was used to manufacture the specimens by embedding (1,2 and 3) wires into epoxy. Experimentally, the acceleration- frequency response curve was plotted for the vibration modes, this curve was used to measure the natural frequencies of the vibration modes and calculate the damping ratio of the vibration modes. ANSYS 15- APDL was used to determine the mode shape and find the natural frequencies of the vibration modes then compared with the experimental results. The results illustrated that, for all specimens increasing the natural frequency leads to decreasing the damping ratio. Increasing the number of shape memory alloy wires leads to increase the values of the damping ratio of the vibration modes and the natural frequencies of the vibration modes at room temperature.
