Simulation analysis of internal and external faults in transformer area

Abstract

Under different types of internal and external faults of transformers, electrical quantities such as voltage, differential current and transformer oil flow rate change accordingly. In this paper, the variation law is studied, and the variation law of differential current and other electrical quantities under different types of faults and abnormal conditions inside and outside the transformer area is verified by simulation. The characteristics of faults inside and outside the area are different, and the faults inside and outside the transformer area are judged. At the same time, ANSYS Maxwell 3D, ANSYS Fluent and other software are used to model and simulate the transformer, and the oil flow rate changes under different operating conditions such as normal operation, external fault and internal fault of the transformer are analyzed.
