Fast calculation and analysis of excitation inrush current peak of converter transformer under different remanence conditions

Abstract

In order to solve the problems of fixed model parameters and low efficiency in the traditional numerical method and software simulation method for transformer excitation inrush current. In this paper, the response surface fitting method is applied to the calculation of the excitation inrush current, which realizes the efficient calculation and analysis of the peak value of the excitation inrush current with the change of the closing Angle under the condition of different remanence of the main column. Firstly, the generation mechanism of transformer excitation inrush current was theoretically analyzed, and the key influencing factors were extracted. Secondly, parameter modeling is used to establish the converter transformer model in this paper. Finally, the response surface model between initial winding current, closing Angle and excitation inrush current peak was fitted by response surface test design, and the accuracy of the response surface was verified. It provides technical reference for the fast calculation and analysis of transformer excitation inrush current and the digital twin technology of power transformer.
