大容量変圧器用アモルファス鉄心の試作による損失低減効果の実証

抄録

For the demonstration of feasibility and loss-reduction effect of the larger-capacity amorphous core transformers (AMT), this paper proposed the support structure and design method of the iron-loss reduced amorphous wound cores with a weight of 7 tons. We designed and manufactured 10 MVA single-phase test model with the cores inserted in a support cage having structures of the stress-buffered core support, the proof electromagnetic force from the windings, and the stray loss-reducing shields. The 50%-loaded total loss of the test model estimated from the calculated and measured results has been reduced by 35% compared with a conventional silicon-steel core transformer (SST) with the same power capacity.
