Generalised transformer model based on the analysis of its magnetic core circuit

Abstract
In this paper a new transformer model, named ‘geometrical’, is developed, based on the circuit analysis of its magnetic core. The method is general and can be used for any type of multiphase multiwinding transformer. The model simulates the transformer as a set of coupled branches and can be incorporated into the widely known electromagnetic transients program (EMTP). A basic advantage of the model is that it can represent any asymmetry of the transformer magnetic circuit. As a study case, the model of an actual 280 MVA autotransformer is derived and used for the simulation of various steady state and transient conditions.
