    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Electric Power Transformer; Losses; Simulation; Temperature; Calculation; Electric power engineering; Elkraftteknik; elektronik; Electronics;

    Abstract : Simulering av temperatur och värmeförluster i kärna och lindning för en högspänningstransformator “... Ett ljus som lyser dubbelt så starkt, varar hälften så länge …”, i analogi med ljuset så kan transformatorer köras med överlast inom vissa gränser, men med följden att livslängden blir kortare.
