Abstract
Epoxy-bonded continuously transposed conductors (CTCs) can enhance windings’ short circuit strength due to the bunch of conductors are bonded by epoxy coating. However, the coating’s bonding strength decrease with the increasing temperature and consequently reduce the mechanical strength of CTCs. This paper analyzes the change of CTCs mechanical strength with temperature. The tensile test explored the elastic modulus and yield strength of copper conductor. The adhesive strength of self-adhesive paint was investigated by adhesive test. The bending strength of CTCs was investigated by three-point bending test. We calculated the elastic modulus of self-adhesive paint by finite element model. Based on the existing winding critical load calculation equations, we calculate the elastic modulus and moment of inertia of CTCs at different temperatures. And we calculate the winding critical load equation with the influence of temperature. The research content has certain significance for improving the short-circuit withstand capacity of transformer.
