A project of this nature could never have been attempted with our reference to and inspiration from the works of others whose details are mentioned in references section. We acknowledge our indebtedness to all of them. Last but not the least, our sincere thanks to all our friends who have patiently extended all sorts of help for accomplishing this undertaking.
ABSTRACT
The project focuses on the harmonic analysis of transformer during the switching transient period. Analysis is made using Discrete Time Fourier Transforms (DTFT). Measuring fundamental and second harmonics of differential current, an algorithm based on the Discrete Fourier Transform and an amplitude estimator are used to simulate and list various harmonic components of current and flux. Generalized functions for describing the relationships between resultant flux and harmonic components are derived. This is important to find these relations for further use in detecting non-linearity and elimination of harmonic components.
PROJECT DEFINITION:
This project will focus on carrying a transient analysis of a transformer. The components of current and magnetizing flux are derived and the hysteresis loop is to be plotted. The current and flux relations with respect to time are simulated for different conditions of phase angle and Residual Flux. Generalized functions for describing the relationships between resultant flux and harmonic components were derived.
AIMS:
Determine the relationship between Magnetizing Field (H) and harmonic components of flux. Determine the magnitude and relative percentages of the different harmonic components of current in a single-phase transformer in variation with respect to the phase angle (switching constant) and Residual Flux. Simulate the harmonic distribution and hysteresis relations derived from above.
INTRODUCTION
A literature survey to document the transient behavior of CT's behavior was conducted. Harmonic analysis of current transformer is made using Discrete Time Fourier Transforms (DTFT). Measuring fundamental and second harmonics of differential current, an algorithm based on the Discrete Fourier Transform and an amplitude estimator which uses 20 samples in order to find the magnitudes of harmonics are used. Magnitudes of harmonic frequencies are obtained by discrete Fourier transform, using a sliding window of one cycle.
Harmonic analysis shows high even harmonics in current. Even harmonics are the characteristic harmonics of transformer saturation and they are used to restrain the operation of differential protection of the transformer during energizing. Even harmonics are not common in power systems and basically depict the asymmetry between the positive and negative half-cycle of waveform.
Transients: It means any sudden change in the circuit, i.e. either closing the circuit or opening the circuits. The transients are two types in power transformer, switching transients and over-voltage transients. Due to transients the behavior of a system has got two components, steady state and transient. Sometimes the initial transient of a system has a very high value, it is known as inrush.
Case 1: Initial inrush will be minimum, When switching angle = power factor angle And inrush will be maximum, when - = 90 II Switching of a 1- Transformer: Neglecting the leakage reactance of the primary and secondary & assuming the no-load, the transformer primary side emf equation can be written as: Vs = rpip + Ip(dip/dt) +es; ep -> Primary induced voltage es -> Secondary induced voltage es -> equivalent Secondary induced voltage ep = -(d/dt) = npm; m = f(ip); Solving eqn (4) & (5), the behavior of current transient of transformer can be predicted, but for that m has to be determined correctly. m is dependent of the nature of the core, since it is nonlinear in nature, it introduces certain complexity. So overall eqn (4) & (5) and the non-linear nature of transformer core determines the initial transient or inrush nature. (5) (4)
Introduction
Transformer exhibit inrush phenomenon during initial energization. Due to flux symmetry or temporary over fluxing, which gives rise to high current at the initial energization of a transformer core. The saturation of one or more cores results in high magnitude of current. Being high magnitude of current, the transformer energizing current is full of harmonics. Both even and odd harmonics occur during energization. They can excite system resonance resulting in dynamic over voltage.
Factors: Point on voltage wave switching Magnitude and polarity of remnant flux Total resistance of primary winding circuit Inductance of the air core Geometry of the transformer core Maximum flux carrying capability of the core material
Impacts Large inrush current causes the voltage dips in the supply system. Which leads to mal operation of sensitive electronics equipment and interrupt manufacturing process. It will be highly unbalanced among 3-, unbalance caused by inrush current could easily result in motor tripping. The waveform of an inrush current is far from sinusoidal containing a lot of high frequency component; such harmonics excite resonances in the system causing significant magnification of voltage or currents at various locations in the system which can damage sensitive electronics equipment, surge suppressor over heating, capacitor fuse blowing and failure. The dc component of the inrush current can lead to oscillatory torque in motors resulting in increase in motor vibration and aging.
Mitigation Over sizing fuse Series resistance insertion Ground resistor insertion Controlled closing or controlled energization or point on voltage wave switching. Soft starting
Inrush analysis can be carried out in four steps these are Identification Determination and discrimination Calculation Mitigation This current has been a problem in the design and performance of differential protective relays used in power transmission and distribution system. Power transformers play an important role in power system, so in order to ensure the safe operation of these transformers.
Calculation
Inrush magnetizing current and its waveform is calculated -> Numerical analysis using MATLAB Transformer equivalent model can be represented as Ri + [L (i) + LL](di/dt) = (2)1/2Emax (sinwt); The magnitude and peak of inrush current waveform is dependent On instant of switching Remnant flux density
For a single phase transformer, equation can be written as Ri + L di +dm/dt = Emax sin(wt); Neglecting L Ri +dm/dt = Emax sin(wt); m = Nm
m = f(im) dm = [(Emax sin(wt) Ri)dt]/N; dBm =d(m)A; Bm = Bm + dBm; as Hm = F(Bm) Im = (Hml)/N; So, the value of current can be determined by solving above equation. Generally an inrush current transient is 10 to 20 times the rated value and it lasts for 20 to 3600 cycles. Without considering Residual Flux Considering Residual Flux Transformer Rating -> 150 MVA, 500 KV ASSUMPTION i> ii> Residual flux is generally in the range between 20 to 70% Flux Pattern is like one near zero and other two +/- values.
This method is applicable to both 1 and 3 transformer circuit. The basic assumptions behind induced flux linkage (prospective flux) are the integral of the applied voltage and it lags it by 90. As given by the equation: Ri + L (di/dt) +dm/dt = Emax sin(wt)dt; Neglecting the drops Or, m dt = 1/N Emax sin(wt)dt; Or, t = r + 1/N Emax sin(wt)dt;
If residual flux left in the core, then flux builds up from that level and sinusoidal flux wave symmetry will be dc offset by the residual flux amount. In order to limit such asymmetry, at the instant of energization the residual flux should be equal to the applied flux (i.e. prospective flux). So that flux wave follows the normal pattern without any offset.
Case 1: Single phase transformer As given in the equation & the figure given above, without residual flux, flux will maintain steady state if it starts from zero. i.e. if t = 0.0, at (t=0 & r=0) -> steady state symmetry (no inrush) Here = 90. In case of loaded circuit optimal instant of switiching is
Case 2: Single phase transformer with residual flux As given previously the reason behind magnetic asymmetry which resulted either due to residual flux or point on switching voltage wave. Point on voltage switching means the different instant on voltage wave at which the transformer is re-energized, depending on that instant flux builds up from a particular dc offset level. i.e. minimum, when Vs(t) = Emax -> = 90; & maximum, when Vs(t) = 0.0 -> = 0 or = 180 and t = 2max or -2max; For the remnant flux case, when transformer is re-energized, the flux builds up from the previous remnant value and the maximum value of remnant to which the flux builds up depends upon the instant of switching. At, Worst switching -> t = r + 2max; This asymmetry can be nullified if transformer is switched on when; The applied flux value is same as residual flux i.e. = sin-1 (r/max) -> w.r.t. flux wave = 90 + sin-1 (r/max) -> w.r.t. voltage wave Where -> Switching instant optimal -> power factor angle.

Conclusion
The study of inrush currents and its effects on harmonics was carried out in detail. The harmonic distortion was simulated using MATLAB for various residual fluxes; the relationships for characteristics of current and flux were plotted over time. Generalized functions for describing the relationships between resultant flux and harmonic components were derived.
Future Plans:
Harmonic components are identified to get the non-linearity of the core, this can be used in the elimination of the harmonics.
