TRANSIENT VOLTAGE AND ELECTRIC FIELD DISTRIBUTIONS IN AIR CORE REACTORS

摘要

This work presents a computational model for the evaluation of transient voltage and longitudinal electric field distributions in single layer air core reactors. The influence of a grounded shielding concentric to the reactor is considered. The validity of the model is verified by comparing computed and measured voltage responses at three taps of a test reactor. Analyses showing the influence of the grounded shielding, front time and front wave shape of the applied voltage on the maximum longitudinal electric stresses along the reactor winding are presented.
