After collecting the parts of the transformer, it has to be dry enough because the insulators affected by the humidity which is make its isolation properties to be less than usual. In case of high internal temperature, transformer oil is considered one of the most important part of the cooling system, preventing the chemical interactions and detecting the faults e.i (short circuit) in a transformer. iv المستخلص ػٕاسل انًحٕﻻث نٓا إَاع كثٍزِ, بؼضٓا ٌسخخذو يغ انًٕصﻻث ٔانبؼض اﻻخز ٌسخخى نؼشل انشزائح انؼًذٍَت ػٍ بؼضٓا انبؼض ٔ يُٓا اٌضا يا ٌسخخذو فً ػشل انًهفاث ػٍ انقهب

This temperature rating is the sum of the winding rise temperature, normally 150°C, the maximum ambient temperature, 40°C, and the hot spot allowance inside the coils, 30°C. Insulation = Winding rise + Coil Hot Spot + Max Ambient For ventilated transformers, 80°C and 115°C are also common low temperature rise transformer ratings.

  • Zilano Design for "Reverse Tesla Coil" Free Energy Generator
    Zilano Design for "Reverse Tesla Coil" Free Energy Generator Summary Document A for Beginners by Vrand Thank you Zilano for sharing your very interesting design and we all wish you the very best, keep up the good work! Energetic Forum http://www.energeticforum.com/renewable-energy/ This is a short document describing the work of Zilano as posted on the Don Smith Devices thread at the Energetic Forum so that other researchers can experiment and build their own working free energy generator to power their homes. Zilano stated that this design was based on the combination works of Don Smith, Tesla, Dynatron, Kapanadze and others. Design Summary Key points : - "Reverse Tesla Coil" (in this document) - Conversion of high frequency AC (35kHz) to 50-60Hz (not in this document) "Reverse Tesla Coil" is where the spark gap pulsed DC voltage from a 4000 volt (4kv) 30 kHz NST (neon sign transformer) goes into an air coil primary P of high inductance (80 turns thin wire) that then "steps down" the voltage to 240 volts AC a low inductance Secondary coil centered over the primary coil (5 turns bifilar, center tap, thick wire) with high amperage output. The high frequency (35kHz) AC output can then power loads (light bulbs) or can be rectified to DC to power DC loads. Copper coated welding rods can be inserted into the air coil to increase the inductance of the air coil primary that then increases the output amperage from the secondary coil to the loads. See the below diagram 1 : Parts List - NST 4KV 20-35KHZ - D1 high voltage diode - SG1 SG2 spark gaps - C1 primary tuning HV capacitor - P Primary of air coil, on 2" PVC tube, 80 turns of 6mm wire - S Secondary 3" coil over primary coil, 5 turns bifilar (5 turns CW & 5 turns CCW) of thick wire (up to 16mm) with center tap to ground.

  • Review of Ground Fault Protection Methods for Grounded, Ungrounded, and Compensated Distribution Systems
    REVIEW OF GROUND FAULT PROTECTION METHODS FOR GROUNDED, UNGROUNDED, AND COMPENSATED DISTRIBUTION SYSTEMS Jeff Roberts, Dr. Hector J. Altuve, and Dr. Daqing Hou Schweitzer Engineering Laboratories, Inc. Pullman, WA USA ABSTRACT This paper reviews ground fault protection and detection methods for distribution systems. First, we review and compare medium-voltage distribution-system grounding methods. Next, we describe directional elements suitable to provide ground fault protection in solidly- and low- impedance grounded distribution systems. We then analyze the behavior of ungrounded systems under ground fault conditions and introduce a new ground directional element for these systems. Then we examine the behavior of compensated systems during ground faults and describe traditional fault detection methods. We conclude by introducing new ground fault detection methods for compensated systems. INTRODUCTION Ground fault current magnitudes depend on the system grounding method. Solidly- and low- impedance grounded systems may have high levels of ground fault currents. These high levels typically require line tripping to remove the fault from the system. Ground overcurrent and directional overcurrent relays are the typical ground fault protection solution for such systems. However, high-impedance ground fault detection is difficult in multigrounded four-wire systems, in which the relay measures the ground fault current combined with the unbalance current generated by line phasing and configuration and load unbalance. Ungrounded systems have no intentional ground. For a single-line-to-ground fault on these systems, the only path for ground current to flow is through the distributed line-to-ground capacitance of the surrounding system and of the two remaining unfaulted phases of the faulted circuit.

  • Advanced Power Transformer Diagnostics – Detection of Core-Ground Issues
    CIGRE-346 2020 CIGRE Canada Conference Toronto, Ontario, October 19-22, 2020 Advanced Power Transformer Diagnostics – Detection of Core-Ground Issues ALI NADERIAN JAHROMI1, PRANAV PATTABI1, JAFAR MOHAMMADI1, MOHSEN TANGSIRI2 1METSCO Energy Solutions, Canada 2MS Hydro Power Plant, Iran SUMMARY The typical construction of a power transformer results in a high potential being induced in the core, due to the electromagnetic coupling that exists between the core and winding assembly. The transformer core is normally grounded at a single point, to safely divert this induced voltage to the local ground. The core-ground connection also provides a low- resistance path under a short circuit scenario between the transformer winding and core. This allows for the reliable operation of the associated transformer protection relay unit. The isolation of core from ground forms an integral part of the transformer’s insulation system. The core-ground connection must be accessible and further removable for testing. Any issue with the transformer core-ground connection can result in improper grounding, the presence of multiple ground paths, unintentional core-grounds, and a floated core. Multiple core-grounds are created when the core comes into direct contact with the grounded internal metallic structure of a power transformer. Based on the value of the core-to-ground resistance, sustained heating effects can be caused by circulating currents that can eventually result in the melting of the transformer core. This paper outlines the use of diagnostic procedures such as Dissolved Gas Analysis (DGA) and Duval’s Pentagon, Dielectric Frequency Response (DFR) testing, and core-to-ground resistance testing for identifying core-ground defects in power transformers.

  • Tesla Coil Project
    Tesla Coil Project In this project, you’ll learn about resonant circuits and how to build oscillators that zero in on a desired region of the resonance. You will also learn about how to safely handle high-voltage DC circuits and ultra-high voltage radio frequency circuits. You will learn how do describe a circuit’s behavior using algebraic equations based on Kirchoffs’ current law. Finally, you will use your ICAP/4 simulator to solve these equations. Danger, High Voltage Hazard: Almost all Tesla Coil circuitry carries dangerously high voltage. You should turn the AC mains power to your Tesla Coil circuit off before connecting any instrumentation. Filter capacitors require bleed resistors that will discharge the capacitors to a safe level within 1 second after power is switched off. The person that connects the instrumentation should be the one that turns the AC power on and off. It is not the time to learn communication skills! Do not touch any of the circuitry when power is applied. The resonant circuits place dangerously high voltages on the primary side of the Tesla Coil as well as its secondary. While some smaller plasma streamers are harmless, you don’t want to be near or touch the Tesla Coil secondary. When working with high voltage, some experienced engineers tell you to keep one hand in your pocket; that makes it harder for you to become part of the circuit. It has become common around the Christmas holiday to see variations of Tesla Coils in the high-end gadget stores. The high voltage, high frequency emissions interact with air and other gas to make a dazzling array of visual effects.
