The assessment of the winding deformation of transformer has a certain practical significance. In this paper, an Improved Ultrasonic Ranging (IUR) method is proposed to assess the winding deformation of transformer. Firstly, the basic principle of winding deformation detection using ultrasonic and the working principle of detection device are discussed. Secondly, the impact of the factors such as transformer oil temperature and echo signal attenuation on the test results is analyzed. Then, a new IUR method is composed, which can realize the on-line monitoring of transformer winding deformation. Finally, an assessment equipment of transformer winding deformation based on the online monitoring is developed, and a prototype is used to test the transformer mode, proving that this method is feasible.

In this paper, the scattering measuring principle of turbidity is introduced firstly. The new type of turbidity sensor probe designed in this paper overcomes the deficiencies of existing technologies, which has higher sensitivity, strong anti-interference and can detect the turbidity accurately and continuously. The system designed with the core of MCU C8051F020 is presented. Then the design of turbidity sensor probe, data acquisition, processing and non-linear compensation are introduced in detail. Besides, in order to eliminate the impact of temperature on the turbidity measurement and improve the measurement accuracy, temperature measurement circuit has been designed. Test results have shown that the designed on-line turbidity-meter has some advantages: low price, high precision, easy operation etc. It can be widely applied in the fields of waterworks, industrial production, aquaculture, environmental protection and so on

The temperature of the hot-spots on windings is a crucial factor that can limit the overload capacity of the transformer. Few studies consider the impact of the load on the hot-spot when studying the hot-spot temperature and its location. In this paper, a thermal circuit model based on the thermoelectric analogy method is built to simulate the transformer winding and transformer oil temperature distribution. The hot-spot temperature and its location under different loads are qualitatively analyzed, and the hot-spot location is analyzed and compared to the experimental results. The results show that the hot-spot position on the winding under the rated power appears at 85.88% of the winding height, and the hot-spot position of the winding moves down by 5% in turn at 1.3, 1.48, and 1.73 times the rated power respectively.

Distribution transformer constitutes a significant asset for any distribution power system. Short circuit currents or forces can cause mechanical faults in transformer winding. In order to discover the hidden trouble of the transformer, in this paper, on-line monitoring system based on FRA method is developed, and signal source, signal injection, system software are introduced. Furthermore, a nanosecond impulse signal generator is used to inject impulse signals through a noninvasive capacitive sensor, to realize on-line monitoring for winding deformation of distribution transformer. Finally, the monitoring system is validated by a corresponding experimental study.

For the purpose of enhance the accuracy and sensitivity of FRA of transformer winding deformation fault diagnose, this paper made several improvements on the traditional FRA. Regarding the signal source's insufficiency, we changed the impulse replaces the sine frequency sweep signal. The test results showed: after the improvement, the test cycle reduces and the signal frequency response range is broader. We also used the FFT and EMD method to improvement the analysis of frequency response curves, this increased the analysis accuracy and diagnose sensitivity, find the fault characteristic. This study can be used on the development of transformer winding fault diagnosis, detection and test methods.

Transformer winding deformation is a main type of transformer fault. The Frequency Response Analysis is a effective method to detect transformer winding deformation. Based on the traditional Frequency Response Method, the current source method is a new way to detect winding deformation. This method adopts the current source as sweep frequency source and uses the current frequency response curve to judge winding deformation. The simulation shows that the current source method is feasible. For some special transformers, this method can realize transformer winding on-line monitoring and diagnosis.

In order to realize distributed measurement of transformer winding temperature and deformation, a transformer winding modification scheme with a built-in distributed optical fiber was designed. By laying a single-mode fiber and a multi-mode fiber on the transformer winding, the Brillouin optical time domain reflection technique (BOTDR) and the Raman optical time domain reflection technique (ROTDR) are used to measure the strain and temperature of the winding to complete the more accurate winding deformation detection. The accuracy of strain and temperature sensing of this scheme was verified by simulation. Then, according to the scheme, a winding model was actually wound, and the deformation and temperature rise tests were carried out. The test results show that this scheme can not only realize the deformation detection and positioning of the winding, but can also realize the measurement of the winding temperature; the temperature measurement accuracy reached ±0.5 °C, the strain measurement accuracy was 200 με, and spatial resolution was up to 5 m. In this experiment, the deformation location with the precision of 2 turns was realized on the experimental winding.
