Chapter1-3 - Three Phase Transformer

This document provides an overview of 3-phase transformers, including: - 3-phase transformers have 3 single-phase transformers wound on a common core to reduce size and cost compared to 3 separate transformers. - The primary and secondary windings can be connected in various configurations such as delta-delta, wye-wye, wye-delta, and delta-wye. - Auto-transformers have a single winding connecting the primary and secondary sides, reducing insulation and size but also isolation.

Introduction

A 3 transformer is essentially 3 single phase transformer wound on a


common core.
The geometry of the core is such that the fluxes of the phases share
common paths as a result, the volume of iron in 3 transformer is less
than the volume of iron of 3 single phase transformer of the same rating.
Hence, the cost is reduced.
reduced
any phase of a 3 transformer behaves exactly like a single phase
transformer.
In 3 transformer, the primary and secondary windings can be connected
either in Y or .

adv:- lighter, smaller, cheaper, slightly more

Np3

iron core must be laminated :


to reduce eddy current loss
iron must be made of soft iron :
to reduce hysteresis loss
cooling the transformer :- use fan or heat sink

Ns2

soft iron must be add with 3-5% silicon :- to increase the saturation flux
in the iron
* The amount of silicon must not too high otherwise the iron will be brittle
clamp the lamination :- to reduce the humming noise

3rd harmonic phenomenon and


unbalanced loading
The Y-Y connection has two very serious

problems:
If loads on the transformer circuit are
unbalanced, then the voltages on the phases of
the transformer can become severely
unbalanced
There is a serious problem with third harmonic
voltages
Solution to the problem:

Auto-Transformer

Auto-Transformer is a transformer with only one winding.


That means, the primary and secondary windings are
not electrically isolated form each other.
other In other words,
the primary and the secondary of autotransformer are
physically connected.
The theory is almost the same as two winding
transformer.

Advantages and Drawback of AutoTransformer


Advantages

i.

ii.

The secondary winding is as part of primary winding.


Hence, autotransformer eliminates the need for a
separate secondary winding.

As a results, autotransformers are always smaller,
lighter, and cheaper.

Absence of electrically isolation is a serious drawbacks


in some applications

Instrument Transformer

Voltage Transformer (Potential Transformer)

Is used to measure or monitor the voltage on


transmission lines and to isolate the metering
equipment from the lines.

Instrument Transformer

Current Transformer

Is used to measure or monitor the current in


transmission lines and to isolate the metering
equipment and relay connected to secondary side.

Other Types of Transformer

High Frequency Transformer

In electronic power supplies, there is always a need to


isolate the output from the input and to reduce the
weight and cost of unit.
The objective are best achieved by using a relatively
high frequency compared to normal frequency of
50Hz / 60Hz.
