Analysis of ultrasonic signals through media in transformer

This paper describes the phenomena of the refraction and reflection when the ultrasonic signals generated by PD(Partial Discharge) in a transformer propagate through the boundary between insulating oil and the tank of the transformer. In this paper, considering the characteristic of the ultrasonic signal and the velocity of the propagation in medium, propagation time from PD source to sensor for incidence angle was calculated. As a result, it was found that the shortest time at specific angle exists. Taking into account the velocity of the propagation in medium, the shortest time with a computer was simulated. It was shown that the simulation was same as experimental result at a real PD source in the transformer.
