INVESTIGATION OF MAGNETIC MODE FOR 3-PHASE TRANSFORMER WITH SYMMETRICAL MAGNETIC CONDUCTOR OF FRAME DESIGN

Abstract

Magnetic mode for 3-phase transformer with symmetrical magnetic conductor of frame design has been investigated on schematic model. The scheme consists of three non-linear coils having star-connection without zero wire. Weberampere characteristics correspond to similar parameters of separate frames of a magnetic conductor. It has been accepted that a magnetic flow of every frame is closed on itself without passing into other frame of the magnetic conductor. Electromagnetic state of equivalent diagram has been described by a system of differential equations which were solved with the help of MathCad program. Investigations have resulted in calculation of functions for magnetic frame induction and magnetizing current and their harmonic compositions; dependence of actual amplitude for magnetic field induction on amplitude of the main harmonic induction has been determined in the paper. While executing experiments it has been revealed the following: induction amplitude of the main harmonic in the magnetic field within frames of the magnetic conductor is higher in comparison with the design induction value by 15.5 %; due to non-linearity of weber-ampere characteristics in frames and properties of 3-phase system harmonic components, which are multiple of three, are initiated in the functions of magnetic induction for separate frames; high-order harmonics of function for magnetic frame induction being imposed on the main harmonic decrease an actual amplitude of magnetic field induction practically up to the design induction value within the operational range of the actual amplitude and in this context coefficients of high-order harmonics change insignificantly; harmonic components, which are multiple of three, are absent in magnetizing currents.
