As the existing contactless power transfer system(CPTS) is adopting the principle of contactless transformer enables to supply power in contactless way using RFID(radio frequency identification)/ID communication method between primary and secondary sides of contactless transformer and detect the alien load. Such CPTS requires the circuit that generates ID in addition, and the ID identification and control generated from the secondary side is performed at the primary side, which cuases complexity of the circuit. Therefore, this study suggested the CPTS using voltage phase, and In order to verify the validity of this study, 3[W] class CPTS shall be designed, and the simulation and test of CPTS using current and voltage phases shall be carried out.

In this paper, we were analyzed the vibration characteristics of the three-phase cast resin transformer using less than 50% of load in the field. Most of the cast resin transformer is less than 50% in the domestic field is used for load conditions. Consisting of a solid insulator cast resin transformer is generating lots of noise and vibration. In addition, because it is affected by Joule 's heat is used in light load conditions. As a results, the transformer vibrations at frequencies below about from 200Hz to 500Hz were detected. Vibration velocity depends on the load variations were found. Load up to approximately 20-30% in most cases the vibration velocity was found at 4,000 ${\mu}m/s$ or less, 8,000 ${\mu}m/s$ or more. Vibration frequency at light load conditions were generated at the 120Hz, 240Hz, 360Hz and 480Hz. At the load condition of from 10% to 20%, vibration velocity is higher than another. Most of the vibration velocity were identified at the 1,000 ${\mu}m/s$ or less. Using the vibration frequency and velocity measurements data, the load on the cast resin transformer analyzed the correlation of the burden. Therefore, this data could be found in the vibration characteristics of the light-load conditions. If the field measurements using the data perform diagnostics on the transformer, it's expected to be very effective.

A 1 MVA single-phase high temperature superconducting (HTS) transformer with BSCCO-2223 wire was designed in this paper. The rated voltages of each sides of the transformer are 22.9 kV and 6.6 kV respectively. Double pancake HTS windings arranged reciprocally will be used for the transformer windings, because of the advantages of insulation and distribution of surge voltage in case of a large power and high voltage transformer. Single HTS wire was used for the primary windings and four parallel wires were used for the secondary windings of the transformer with transposition. A core of the transformer was designed as a shell type core separated with the windings by a cryostat made of GFRP with a room temperature bore. The operating temperature of the HTS windings will be about 65K with sub-cooled liquid nitrogen. A cryogenic cooling system using a GM-cryocooler for this HTS transformer by natural convection of liquid nitrogen was designed. This type of cooling system can be a good option for compactness, efficiency, and reliability of the HTS transformer.

Precise absolute measurement of the errors in a potential transformer (PT) can be achieved using high voltage capacitance bridge (HVCB) and capacitive divider. The uncertainty in a PT measurement using the HVCB system was evaluated by considering the overall factors affecting during the calibration of a PT. The expanded uncertainties are found to be not more than $30{\times}10^{-6}$ for ratio and $30{\mu}rad$ for phase up to the primary voltage of $V_p=22kV$. For same PTs, the measured errors in KRISS (Korea Research Institute of Standards and Science) using our bridge are well coincide with those in NMIA (National Measurement Institute of Australia) and PTB (Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt) within the corresponding uncertainties.

The various criteria to identify the disturbances of the power transformer has been reported in this paper. They have been derived through EMTP simulations of internal faults, inrush and overexcitation for the model of 154/22.9[kV], 40[MVA], Y-Y three-phase power transformer. We also propose the algorithm which makes bpa Functions and infers the final decision from them based on Modfied Dempster-Shafer's rule of combination.

The study on the multi-level inverter has been increasingly progressing to reduce the switching loss and improve the THD of output current in photovoltaic inverter. Recently, the main topics of multi-level inverter are to reduce the number of devices maintaining the power quality. Therefore, the novel topology was proposed for these problem which is composed of the isolated H-bridge multi-level inverter using the three phase low frequency transformer. The proposed multi-level inverter may not be need for a independent DC power, diode and capacitor. Specially, It has a advantage in generating high voltage source. The proposed approach is verified through simulation and experiment.

A novel active input unbalance voltage compensator with harmonic current compensating capability is proposed and the operating principle of the proposed system is presented in the 3-phase power system. The proposed system performs both the voltage regulation of the load and the compensation of the harmonic currents generated due to nonlinear load such as diode rectifier. The system to compensate unbalanced voltage and hramonic currents is composed of a 3-phase voltage source inverter, LC filter, series transformer and passive devices at the load side of the line. The compensating voltage to regulate the load voltage and to remove the harmonic current components is transmitted to the line by the series transformer. The validity of the line by the series transformer. The validity of the proposed system is proved by the results of computer simulation.

In the case of the transformers including the delta winding such as a three-phase Y-Y-$\Delta$ transformer, a delta winding current flows in the delta windings. The delta winding current of a three-phase Y-Y-$\Delta$ transformer is decomposed into a non-circulating current and a circulating current. The former can be estimated directly from the line currents, but the latter can not. This paper proposes an estimation method for a circulating current of a Y-Y-$\Delta$ Transformer. A first order differential equation for the circulating current is derived by applying the Kirchhoff's voltage law on the loop of the delta side. The circulating current can be estimated by solving the differential equation. Various test results indicate the algorithm can estimate the circulating current accurately even under over-excitation and magnetic inrush.

The secondary rectifying circuit of the phase-shifted full-bridge converter is compared to achieve high power density and high efficiency, and the phase-shifted full bridge converter with a current-doubler rectifier is selected. The planar transformer is designed by the proposed optimized design procedure and verified by FEA simulation. To validate the proposed design method, experimental results from a 3 kW prototype are provided. The prototype achieved 95.28% maximum efficiency and a power density of 2.98 kW/L.

This paper describes the numerical simulations in the cooling of the radiator in a distribution transformer. The aim of this work is the cooling optimization of the transformer by CFD simulations. A clear understanding of the cooling pattern in a radiator which is a main heat remover in the power transformer is essential for optimizing the radiator design increasing the thermal efficiency. In this paper we study the heat transfer and fluid flow in a 3-phase 400kVA transformer. The plate radiators of this transformer become wrinkled (corrugated radiator) and there are filled with transformer oil. The oil is circulated due to the natural convection driven by buoyancy effects through radiators so that the ultimate cooling medium is the surrounding air. In the design of transformers, it is of interest to minimize the cost and size of radiators. The obtained results show the temperature and flow distributions and the possibility to optimize the transformer with 3-dimensional CFD models using FLUENT.
