This paper presents an analyzing method of the capacitance of the power transformer for initial voltage distribution and insulation design. When a high incoming surge voltage is accidently occurred in windings of transformer, it does not distribute equally in the windings. This phenomenon makes electric field concentration and the insulating material could be break. Initial voltage distribute mostly depends on capacitances between winding to winding or winding to core in the transformer. If the C network can be structuralized into the equivalent circuit model and be calculated each capacitance element value by circuit analysis and FEM(Finite Element Method) simulation program, the transformer designer could know the place where the structure is to be modified or the insulation to be reinforced. This method quickly provides the data of the voltage distribution in each winding to the designer.

In this paper, multilayer piezoelectric transformer for high power is presented. This piezoelectric transformer, with a multilayered construction in the thickness direction, was fabricated at the sintering temperature of $1055^{\circ}C$. The electrical properties of multilayer piezoelectric transformer as a function of Internal electrode structure, with same size, were investigated. Also, the multilayer piezoelectric transformer with different layer number of 5, 10, 15 layers, were investigated.

In this paper, we dealt with the electro-thermal coupling analysis for temperature prediction of power transformer. Heat transfer coefficient are calculated using Nusselt number in accordance with heat source generated from transformer windings and core materials. The calculated temperatures in power transformer were compared to those of measured ones and showed good agreement. This coupling method using heat transfer coefficient can be used at the design stage of power transformer efficiently.

This paper presents the analyzing method for surface temperature distribution of a cast-resin transformer. For the study, the surface temperature of the transformer winding was measured and analyzed by a infrared thermography system. Alternating voltages were applied to simulate deterioration of the specimen transformer, and the hot-spot on the transformer surface was measured to analyze the condition for the winding. The hot line condition measured to the changes in surface temperature using infrared thermography camera and was set up the based of diagnostic method of the electric power apparatus. The results ould show the possibility of remote diagnosis using internet.

In order to detect of insulation problems an early, transformer has to be performed the several tests. The ac current and tan6 of transformer winding insulation were investigated by Schering bridge. Partial discharge(PD) tests are used to evaluate the insulation condition of transformer. The moisture content measurement was conducted using RVM(recovery voltage meter). The RVM test can show that the problem is affecting the paper insulation of transformer. The value of moisture content was 2.3% in main transformer. The insulations of four transformers were judged to be in good condition.

To found out the degradation characteristic of transformer insulation, insulation material was depisited into transformer oil and heated. Due to the thermal stress which added to insulation, the density of carbon dioxide which included in transformer oil was mesured by using the gas density detection equipment of gas sensor and air circulation method. As a result, it didn't match with the transformer supervision standard. But it was found that as thermal stress increased, the density of carbon dioxide propertionally increased.

In this study, multilayer piezoelectric transformer were manufactured using the PZN-PMN-PZT ceramic and then the electrical characteristics were investigated. The voltage step-up ratio of multilayer piezoelectric transformer showed the maximum value in the vicinity of 78.16kHz and increased according to the increase of load resistance. When the output impedance coincided with the load resistance, piezoelectric transformer showed the temperature increase of about $20^{\circ}C$ at the output power of 12W. The results, the multilayer transformer manufactured using the low temperature sintered PZN-PMN-PZT ceramics can be stably driven for step-up transformers.

A noise reduction equipment in power systems was device combined in a passive element such as the form of L, R and C. A analysis of frequency characteristics for the transformer models shall be considered the additional capacitance between the windings($C_{ps}$), terminals($C_s$), and winding-ground($C_g$). A noise in transformer is modeled by take account into the different frequency. In case of the high frequency, transformer windings with stray capacitance have lower impedance. Therefore a noise is transferred from primary winding to secondary winding. Noise Cut Transformer(NCT) was the noise reduction device and was normally single phase two-winding type transformer. We analyzed frequency characteristics using the nodal network analysis with the equivalent circuit and the simulation of the MATLAB.

Recently, the efficiency of power transformer is improved as well as the size is becoming smaller. So, it is very important that temperature characteristics of the transformer should be estimated and predicted precisely. This paper deals with the temperature distribution of power transformer by simplified 2-D hybrid mesh model. The temperature distribution of model transformer was obtained by CFD algorithm considering natural convection. Heat sources are calculated first by magnetic field analysis based on F.E.M. and are usedas the input data for thermal field problem based on computational fluid dynamics(CFD) algorithm. The calculated temperature distribution of the simplified 2-D power transformer model shows good results in accuracy as well as in computing time.

In this study, multilayer piezoelectric transformer was manufactured using the PMN-PNN-PZT ceramic and then the electrical characteristics were investigated according to the variations of frequency and load resistance. The voltage step-up ratio of multilayer piezoelectric transformer showed the maximum value at the vicinity of 75 kHz and increased according to the increase of load resistance. When the output impedance coincided with the load resistance, the multilayer piezoelectric transformer showed the temperature rise of less than $20^{\circ}C$ at the output power of 20 W. As the results, the multilayer piezoelectric transformer manufactured at low co-firing temperature of $940^{\circ}C$ using PMN-PNN-PZT ceramics could be stably driven as the step-down transformers.
