Abstract

For transformer designers, eddy current loss calculation of steel structure is required to consider temperature rise on transformers. This study describes design of a lock plate for converter transformers by finite element method. The lock plate may be locally heated by fringing flux due to air-gap. 3D finite element analysis is performed and compared so as to minimize eddy loss on the lock plate with different materials and structures
