The mold transformers have been widely used in underground substations in large building and have some advantages in comparison to oil-transformer, that is low fire risk, excellent environmental compatibility, compact size and high reliability. In addition, the application of mold transformer for outdoor is possible due to development of epoxy resin. The mold transformer generally has cooling duct between low voltage coil and high voltage coil. A mold transformer made by one body molding method has been developed for small size and low loss. In this paper, the proto type mold transformer of 50kVA class is investigated by routine, type, special test. The outdoor energized aging test is investigated by back-to-back method to verify the long time performance of pole mold transformer. The aging process of transformer is analyzed by various diagnosis method such as DC voltage-current test, $tan{\delta}$, Meggar measurement, winding temperature and etc.

A mold transformer made by one body molding method has been developed for small size and low loss, but it needs some cooling method because heat radiation between each winding is difficult. In this paper, the temperature distribution and thermal stress analysis of H class 100kVA pole cast resin transformer for power distribution are investigated by FEM program.

The life of transformer is significantly dependent on the thermal behavior in windings. Many transformer designers have calculated temperature distribution and hot spot point by FEM(finite element method) to analyze winding temperature rise. In this paper, the temperature distribution and thermal stress analysis of 100kVA pole cast resin transformer for power distribution are investigated by FEM program.

The mold transformer is a complex and critical component of DC substations in Metro system. In this paper, a cost effective and intelligent condition monitoring system for mold transformers in DC substations was developed. This paper also provides an overview of the management program using PD (partial discharge) data on mold transformers. Prior to application of the proposed system to Metro DC substations, experiments were performed at the metro line substation located in Seoul and presented case studies for the use of the intelligent condition monitoring system for mold transformer in DC substations. The experiment results indicated that the developing system can be need in helping mange the risk of unexpected failure of mold type transformers.

The life of transformer is significantly dependent on the thermal behavior in windings. To analyse winding temperature rise, many transformer designer have calculated temperature distribution and hot spot point by finite element method(FEM). Recently, numerical analyses of transformer are studied for optimum design, that is electric field analysis, magnetic field, potential vibration, thermal distribution and thermal stress. Therefore design time and design cost are decreased by numerical analysis. In this paper, the temperature distribution and thermal stress analysis of 50kVA pole cast resin transformer for power distribution are investigated by FEM program. The temperature change according to load rates of transformer also have been investigated. We have carried out temperature rise test and test results are compared with simulation data.

Various stresses (such as electrical stress, mechanical stress, environmental and electrochemical stress, and defects of structure) result in insulation degradation of epoxy mold type insulators. Since the insulation degradation of BCT(Bushing Current Transformer) and bushing proceeds during fabrication process or operation time due to these causes, various methods to reduce the degradation in their insulation ability have been suggested. In this paper, we investigated surface temperature increment of these insulators due to PD(partial discharge). After the voltage applied into the insulator to generate the artificial PD, the surface temperature of the insulator was measured with non-contact thermometer using infrared rays. It was confirmed through the analysis based on PD experiments that the procession in the insulation degradation of the insulator could be estimated through the measurement of the surface temperature in the insulator.

The autotransformer currently used on the electric railway system is made of class A insulation material and uses the paper insulation method. As a power converter supplying power to the trolley wire, the autotransformer is one of critical equipment in the railway system. In the autotransformer, load irregularly changes and overload often occurs. These cause overheating of the autotransformer and facilitate deterioration of the autotransformer resulting in burnout accidents due to insulation breakdown. Also, the current autotransformer has poor insolation and short-circuit strength which often badly affect the service life of the transformer, and needs to improve its quality urgently. To overcome one of existing shortcomings of the mold transformer, manufacturers use epoxy resins that have superior flame retardancy to get rid of fro and explosion possibilities during accidents. Currently, new mold transformers are used in indoor distribution facilities with fire-fighting equipments. Coils molded in epoxy resins do not have their insulation performance compromised by humidity, dust, etc enabling easy inspection and maintenance. Comparing to the oil immersed transformer, the mold transformer does not have any concern about environmental pollutions by oil leak or replacement Therefore, to reduce breakdowns and improve reliability of the autotransformer, it is necessary to develop a new mold autotransformer with low loss suitable for our environment to suppress breakdowns of the autotransformer and improve the reliability. This study is about development of a low-loss mold autotransformer necessitated by reasons mentioned earlier.

본 연구는 초음파 측정법을 사용하여 부분방전에 의한 에폭시 몰드형 전력변압기의 열화상태을 진단하기 위해 에폭시수지의 트리진전에 초음파신호를 분석하였으며, 또한 열화시간에 따른 트리길이, 방전전하량 및 초음파 펄스수의 특성을 조사하였다. 실험 결과, 애폭시수지에 발생된 트리는 수지령이면, 인가전압 16[kV]에 대한 트리 길이 및 트리 폭의 평균성 장률은 각각 0.014 및 0.026[mm/min] 이였으며, 20[kV]의 경우 이들 값은 각각 0.032 및 0.063[mm/min]으로 더욱 증가된 것으로 나타났다. 열화중기 이후 트리가 성장함에 따라 초음파 펄스수 및 부분방전 전하량은 급격히 증가된 것으로 나타났다. 그리고 초음파 펄스수는 방전전하량에 비례하여 증가되었다. 또한 몰드형 전력변압기의 초음파 측정시 기본 데이터를 얻기 위해 초음파 발진 및 수신장치를 사용하여 에폭시수지에 대한 초음파신호의 감쇄, 시간지연 및 지향특성도 조사하였다.
