(2) Reactive power, also known as out-of-phase component. The ratio of the out-of-phase component to the in-phase component is called the dielectric loss tangent tanδ. tanδ=1/WCR (where W is the angular frequency of the alternating electric field; C is the dielectric capacitance; R is the loss resistance). The dielectric loss tangent is a dimensionless physical quantity.
Hysteresis loss
The hysteresis loss is due to the existence of a "hysteresis loop" in the iron core, so that the phase difference between the induced electromotive force and the magnetizing current is not equal to 90 degrees. We know that if it is 90 degrees, the current is "reactive". Now it is not equal to 90 degrees, which is equivalent to connecting an active current component in parallel.
By Steinmetz formula hysteresis loss, Wh =Kh f Bm1.6 w/m3Eddy current loss can be reduced by using an iron core made of thin laminated sheets and material with high electrical resistivity. It reduces the induced EMF and the amount of current flow.
2. Specific explanation:
When the transformer is working normally, the magnetic field generated by the secondary side current and the main part of the primary current are offset. The magnetic field left after cancellation should be roughly equal to the magnetic field at no load (when the secondary current is zero) (assuming resistance and leakage flux are ignored). Therefore, the "magnetizing current" I mentioned above should be equal to the no-load current of the transformer.When the transformer is no-load, if there is no loss, the input characteristics of the primary side should be equivalent to a pure inductance. With loss, the input current is equivalent to adding a resistor in parallel to the inductor. tanδ should be equal to the ratio of the current on this equivalent resistor to the current on the inductor.
Other transformers types:
1. Iron Losses or Core Loss
Total Copper Loss, Pcu = I12R1 + I22R2 ;
The values of Resistance R1 of the primary winding and R2 of the secondary winding are constant.
It occurs in the insulating material and oil of the transformer. The transformer oils are subject to change its parameters such as dielectric strength, tan delta, moisture, chemical parameters (dissolved impurities – dissolution of copper), physical parameters, etc…
Additional points
1.Iron loss (Hysteresis loss, eddy current loss) and dielectric loss are no-load losses which are independent of the transformer load.
2.Whereas the copper loss and stray loss varies with the load current.
3.Iron loss is a constant loss and copper loss is a variable loss.
4.Copper loss is determined by the short circuit test and Iron loss is determined by the open circuit test.
1. The GTD-61A Automatic Oil Tan Delta & Oil dielectric loss tester is highly automated, allowing for the measurement of temperature rise, dielectric loss, and resistance in one go.
2. The test kit adopts medium-frequency induction heating and a PID temperature control algorithm. This heating method has several advantages, including non-contact heating between the oil cup and the heating body, uniform heating, high speed, and convenient control. As a result, the temperature is strictly controlled within the preset temperature error range.
3. The GTD-61A test kit uses advanced DSP and FFT technology to ensure data stability, accuracy, and reliability.
4. The internal standard capacitor is an SF6 inflatable three-point capacitor. The dielectric loss of this capacitor is not affected by ambient temperature and humidity, so the accuracy of the instrument is still guaranteed after long-term use.
5. The large color touch screen and English operation menu make the GTD-61A test kit easy to operate.
6. The GTD-61A test kit provides tips on opening the cover after shutting off the high voltage, short-circuiting the high and low voltage electrodes of the oil cup to eliminate any hidden safety hazards, and ensuring the safety of the operator and normal operation of the equipment.
7. The test kit has a real-time clock, allowing the test date and time to be saved, displayed, and printed with the test results. The device can also display real-time monitoring of the environment.
8. The GTD-61A can automatically store and store up to 100 sets of test data.
9. The test kit has the function of calibrating the empty electrode cup. The capacitance and dielectric loss factor of the empty electrode cup are measured to judge the conditions of the empty electrode cup. The calibration data is automatically saved to facilitate accurate calculation of relative permittivity and DC resistivity.
10. The GTD-61A has a wireless transmission function, making it easy to connect with a computer for data transmission and counter charge functions.
11. The oil can be drained off automatically without being taken out, making it convenient to clean.
