In this paper, the electrical characteristics of the non-contact transformer is presented using conventional coupled inductor theory. In high power applications, the non-contact transformer is so bulky and heavy that it poses some maintenance problems. Therefore it should be divided into some light transformer modules. This paper shows the analytic method of how to measure the parameters of the multiple connected non-contact transformer The analytical results are verified through measurement.

To cope with the high power density and low cost in switching power supply, this paper presents a novel planar transformer, which can regulate the leakage inductance of planar transformer used for LLC resonant converter. Modeling and analysis of a novel planar transformer are discussed in detail and a prototype 200W LLC resonant converter is tested to verify.

This paper presents a new method for the protective relaying scheme in power transformer using wavelet based neural networks. This approach is as fellows. After approximation and detail information is extracted by daub wavelet transform from differential current of power transformer, the former is used for obtaining the rate of differential currents and restrain currents, the latter used as the input of artificial neural networks to avoid the Hiss-operation in over-exciting state and magnetizing inrush state of power transformer. The simulation of EMTP with respect to different faults, inrush conditions and over-exciting conditions in power transformer have been conducted, and the results preyed that the proposed method is able to discriminate magnetizing inrush states, over-exciting stales and internal faults.

The back-light inverter used in the laptop computer is designed in this paper. It has been difficult for electromagnetic transformer to enhance the efficiency and compact profile of the inverter. In this paper, (1) the piezoelectric transformer (PT) is used for reducing the loss; (2) the volumes of core and winding coil are used in electromagnetic transformer, and (3) the half-bridge series parallel resonant circuit is used in the driver of the inverter. The modified PT for this paper and the equivalent circuit are supported by the simulation program. The result of the experiment shows more than 91% improvement in terms of the efficiency.

This paper describes a transformer protective relaying algorithm based on the ratio of increments of flux linkages (RIFL) of the primary and secondary windings. The algorithm uses integration approximation. The RIFL is equal to the turns ratio for all operating conditions except for an internal fault. For a single-phase transformer and a Y-Y transformer, the increments of flux linkages (IFL) are calculated. For a Y-$\Delta$ transformer, the difference of IFL are calculated to use the line currents rather than the delta winding currents, which are unavailable. Their ratios are compared with the turns ratio. The comparative study between the proposed and conventional differentiation approximation methods was conducted. The test results show that the algorithm reduces the approximation errors of the conventional methods.

This paper presents a new sort of multilayer piezoelectric ceramice transformer for switching regulatied power supplies. And this paper presents the study and development of a DC-DC converter with a transformer made from piezoelectric materials. This piezoelectric transformer operate, in the second thickness extensional vibration mode. Its resonant frequency is higher than 1MHz, This piezoelectric transformer was used the PbTiO$_3$ family ceramics because it was a material large anisotropy between electromechanical coupling factors k$_{t}$ and k$_{p}$. The input and output layer consists of two piezoelectric ceramic layer for eleivater of outpur power.wer.

Both ratio error and phase angle error in current transformer(CT) depend critically on values of CT burden. Thus, precise measurement of CT burden is very important for the evaluation of CT. A method for the measurement of CT burden has been developed by employing the portable shunt precise resistor with negligible AC-DC resistance difference less than $10^{-5}$. The burden value(value and power factor) can be calculated from resistance and reactance obtained by measuring the change of ratio error and phase angle error caused by the change of shunt resistor. The uncertainty for the method is evaluated and found to be abut 2 %.

This paper presents a new structure for a piezoelectric transformer, operating in thickness extensional vibration mode. Modified $PbTiO_3$ family ceramics were used for the piezoelectric transformer, because it was a material with large anisotropy between elecromechanical coupling factors $K_t$ and $K_p$ . The size of piezoelectric transformer was 20mn long, 20mm wide and 3.1mm thick. The second harmonic resonant frequency of thickness extensional vibration mode was 0.72MHz at loading resistance 100[$\omega$], And Voltage gin of piezoelectric ceramics showed 0.53 at resonant frequency of sencond thickness extensional vibration mode.

In a transformer, thermal stress is the most influential parameter affecting the aging behavior of insulation system. The aging behavior of insulation system in transformer is determined mainly by the thermal conditions inside the transformer. The thermal stress on the insulation system may occur from operation in a high temperature caused by overloading or local overheating. Thus, this paper investigated the condition monitoring of insulation condition in thermally accelerated aged transformer oils by in-situ sensor. The condition of aged samples was investigated by measurements of relative permittivity i.e. capacitance change by capacitive sensor. Results from the experiments are presented in this paper.

HTS transformer is one of the most promising devices to supply enough electric energy for quick increase consumption. However, for practical design of the HTS transformer, it is necessary to establish the research on breakdown, V-t characteristics, degradation, and so on. In this paper, we discussed breakdown characteristics and V-t characteristics of polyimide/L$N_2$ and glass fiber reinforced plastic/$LN_2$ composite insulations. These composite insulations have been used as turn-to-turn and layer-to-layer insulations for HTS transformer respectively, Moreover, we investigated the degradation of these insulation samples after breakdown using microscope and SEM photograph.
