Abstract

This paper presents a double-ladders circuit model of transformer winding for use in frequency response analysis (FRA) to diagnose the windings deformation. This model considers the nonlinear behavior of frequency-dependent parameter and core loss. A lumped parameter circuit model includes the axial and radial ladder network which are regarding to the winding discs and the eddy current paths of magnetic core, respectively. The frequency responses of voltage ratio are simulated and measured to verify the effective of this model, where the equivalent parameters are calculated by using 3-D finite element method (FEM).
