2. 1. On the establishment of effective condition-based maintenance for oil-filled electrical transformers to reduce failures due to copper corrosion problems and its role toward sustainable energy

   Author : Ramsey Jadim; Mirka Kans; Lina Bertling Tjernberg; Linnéuniversitetet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; CBM; CM procedures; corrosion problems; transformer oil analysis; corrosive sulfur; transformer failures; sustainable maintenance; sustainable energy supply; Maskinteknik; Mechanical Engineering;

   Abstract : Oil-filled electrical transformers are critical equipment for modern societies where a sustainable energy supply is required. Recently, many severe fire and explosion accidents of transformers have been reported due to copper corrosion problems in the form of copper sulfide deposits on the windings. READ MORE

4. 2. On the estrablishment of effective condition monitoring parameters for copper corrosion problems in mineral oil-filled electrical transformers

   Author : Ramsey Jadim; Mirka Kans; Linnéuniversitetet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; condition monitoring parameters; corrosion problems; sulfur deposits; corrosion reaction mechanisms; transformer failures; CBM.; Maskinteknik; Mechanical Engineering;

   Abstract : The power transformer is a critical equipment in which the protection process is essential for modern societies where continuous electric power supplies are required. Copper corrosion problems due to the formation of sulfur deposits on the copper windings of mineral oil-filled power transformers are considered a major issue that can lead to sudden failures, and in some cases, to costly fire and explosion accidents in the power plants.

5. 3. Characteristic of Surge Transfer Through Transformers : Study of Conventional Distribution Transformer and XLPE Cable Winding Transformer (Dryformer)

   Author : Mighanda Manyahi; Vladmiir Rakov; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Physics; Fysik; Physics; Fysik; Electricity; Esp The Study Of Transients and Discharges; elektricitetslära; ssk studiet av transienter och urladdning;

   Abstract : Wide spread application and dependence on microelectronics based equipment in modern society has necessitated the study of power supply quality problems in low voltage power installations. In spite of improvements in surge protection, sensitive equipment connected to low-voltage side of distribution transformer has continued to fail due to transient voltages that are transferred through distribution transformer from high voltage circuits.

6. 4. Diagnostics of Oil-Impregnated Paper Insulation Systems by Utilizing Lightning and Switching Transients

   Author : Roya Nikjoo; Hans Edin; Christer Törnkvist; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Capacitance; Dielectric Response; Loss tangent; Moisture content; Oil - impregnated paper; Temperature; Transformer Bushing; Transients;

   Abstract : Development of the power gridtowards a more reliable and smarter system requires frequent on-line monitoring of the power components. Power transformers and their bushings are particularly important components in a power transmission system and their insulation degradation may lead to catastrophic failures. READ MORE

7. 5. Multiple Aspects of Dynamic Rating in the Power System

   Author : Seyede Fatemeh Hajeforosh; Math Bollen; Sarah Rönnberg; Alfredo Vaccaro; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Dynamic rating; Transmission lines; Overload Protection; Stochastic analysis; Hosting capacity; Transformers; Electric Power Engineering; Elkraftteknik;

   Abstract : Increased consumption and increased use of renewable energy make overhead lines and transformers more often congested. Dynamic rating (DR) uses a time-depending maximum permissible current instead of a long-term-fixed rating; it is an effective solution to upgrade the capacity of existing grid assets to minimize this congestion.
