In this paper, we describe the partial discharge measurement with measuring impedance to have two wide frequency band transformers(filters) in the oil-paper and air insulation. The measuring impedance consists of high and low limiting frequency transformers. This measuring impedance could be measured the partial discharge current wave. We have the results that the amplitude partial discharge pulse ratio of low limiting frequency tranformer to high limiting frequency one is varied in the condition(in oil-paper insulation and air) to generate partial discharge.

We describe the characteristic of LVI(Low-voltage Impulse) test system and methods to detect the deformation of windings in the power transformers. Any winding deformation will result in a change of capacitance between winding parts and possibly some change in the winding inductance. These changes will then result in a change in the responce to the applied pulse in both the magnitude and period of the resulting oscillations. A results of measured differential method in stead of typical method, the sensitivity is greatly improved by the use of differential methods where the pulse is applied to two identical windings and the response measured with a differential amplifier.

In this paper, a multilevel PWM inverter employing a cascaded transformer is presented to reduce the harmonics of output voltage and load currents. The proposed PWM inverter consists of two full-bridge modules and their corresponding transformers. The secondarics of each transformer are series-connected. So continuous output voltage levels can be synthesized from the suitable selection of the turns ratio of trasformer. And it appears an integral ratio to input DC source. Because of the cascaded connection of transformers, output filter inductor is not necessary. The operational principles and analysis are explained, and it is compared with a conventional isolated H-bridge PWM inverter. The validity of proposed multilevel inverter is verified through simulated and experimental waveform and their FFT results.

A high frequency and energy density pulse transformer is a critical component of a high voltage power supply in a traveling wave tube (TWT) amplifier system. In this paper, processes of design, manufacturing, and test of the transformer are discussed. Primary voltage of the transformer is 240 V. The transformer secondary have two outputs which are 4100 V (Helix) and 2050 V (Collector). Total output power is 860 W. Normal operating frequency of the transformer is 10 kHz. In high energy density pulse transformers, temperature rise is a main problem during its operation. From our study, it was found that resonant current due to leakage inductance and stray capacitance was the main cause of temperature rise. This happens because of the inherently high turn-ratio in high voltage transformers. Solutions to reduce stray components are presented.

A field-oriented UHF system for on-line PD monitoring of transformers is designed, which has been installed inside the oil tank of transformer in a substation by two ways: on-line installing mode through the oil-valve and pre-installing mode through the man hole/hand hole cover. This system has successfully captured long intermittent discharge signals that hadn't been detected through conventional techniques, and solved the problem successfully. The results demonstrate that UHF technique has great advantages for on-line PD monitoring of transformers. By adopting the peak detection technique, it becomes easy and effective for the transplantation of the phase-resolved pattern recognition technique from conventional method to UHF method, and then to realize continuous on-line monitoring, source characterization and trending analysis.

The pulsed power systems have been widely used many other countries and their new applications have been developed by many researchers, such as E/P(Electrostatic Precipitator) to remove the industrial dust, DeNOx/DeSOx power systems, ozone generators and power sources of the laser beam, etc. In this paper, we studied the cascading technique as a new technology consisted of two pulse transformers and obtained their experimental data and results. To obtain the high pulsed voltage adopted cascading technique, we designed our compact pulse generator and tested by adjusting the value of the load resistors to obtain high pulsed voltage with steep rising time and duration time. We explained their experimental results that obtained by adopting cascading technique. Also, we compared theoretical value with measured value obtained by using the cascading method.

In this paper, the cascade 3-phase IHMCL inverter using two low frequency transformers is proposed. The proposed inverter is constructed by connecting a 3-phase IHCML inverter. the cascade 3-phase IHCML inverter has several advantages. One advantage is that only one input power source is required because of using transformers to isolate. Another advantage is that the switching frequency of the high power switches is almost fundamental frequency of reference and the other the switching frequency of the low power switches is higher. It can be known that cascade 3 phase IHCML inverter has the excellent efficiency and the outstanding electric quality. lastly, we tested the 5kW cascade 3-phase IHCML inverter to clarify the proposed electric circuit and reasonableness of control signal for the proposed inverter.

Transformers are the most famous deep learning models that has achieved great success in natural language processing and also showed good performance on computer vision. In this survey, we categorized transformer-based models for computer vision, particularly object detection tasks and perform comprehensive comparative experiments to understand the characteristics of each model. Next, we evaluated the models subdivided into standard transformer, with key point attention, and adding attention with coordinates by performance comparison in terms of object detection accuracy and real-time performance. For performance comparison, we used two metrics: frame per second (FPS) and mean average precision (mAP). Finally, we confirmed the trends and relationships related to the detection and real-time performance of objects in several transformer models using various experiments.

A new type of topology with medium-frequency-transformer (MFT) isolation for medium voltage wind power generation systems is proposed in this paper. This type of converter is a high density power conversion system, with high performance features suitable for next generation wind power systems in either on-shore or off-shore applications. The proposed topology employs single-phase cascaded multi-level AC-AC converters on the grid side and three phase matrix converters on the generator side, which are interfaced by medium frequency transformers. This avoids DC-Link electrolytic capacitors and/or resonant L-C components in the power flow path thereby improving the power density and system reliability. Several configurations are given to fit different applications. The modulation and control strategy has been detailed. As two important part of the whole system, a novel single phase AC-AC converter topology with its reliable six-step switching technique and a novel symmetrical 11-segment modulation strategy for two stage matrix converter (TSMC) is proposed at the special situation of medium frequency chopping. The validity of the proposed concept has been verified by simulation results and experiment waveforms from a scaled down laboratory prototype.

This paper presents a study on a 2.4GHz differential cascode power amplifier(PA) fabricated using a 130nm CMOS process. This PA is designed for wireless power transmission applications and consists of two differential stages with custom-designed balun transformers for single-ended output. Balun transformers are utilized not only for the output stage but also for power match-ing between each stage. Additionally, a bias circuit with temperature compensation capability is added to maintain stable bias voltage in the 2.4GHz frequency band. As a result, it achieves an output power of 21.75 dBm with a power-added efficiency(PAE) of 40.9% at TT/40℃.
