With the increase in its popularity, it becomes important for transformer, reactor, instrument transformer manufacturer and power utilities to understand the complete insulating properties of natural esters and their impact on insulation design. In this paper, behavior of natural ester oil under positive and negative polarities of lightning impulse waveshape are analyzed with respect to mineral oil. The breakdown strength of the mineral oil is considered as a benchmark. Two types of natural esters are used for comparison of impulse waveshape of polarity results with mineral oil. The impulse tests are performed with vertical configuration test cell under completely divergent field using sphere-needle electrode configuration with various gaps between the electrodes. The impulse breakdown data obtained from all the impulse polarity tests are statistically analyzed by 3 parameter weibull distribution in order to establish the 1% breakdown voltages for natural ester oil and mineral oil. Furthermore, electrical stress analysis is performed based on 1% breakdown voltages resulting in calculation of utilization factor by using FEM technique.","PeriodicalId":422853,"journal":{"name":"2020 IEEE 9th Power India International Conference (PIICON)","volume":"33 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130596818","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Many studies primarily considered the spherical particle for the investigation to understand the effect of particle in oil. Contribution towards understanding the effect of irregular-shaped particle in oil are very limited. This paper introduces a modified general equation for irregular-shaped particle motion in transformer oil. Additionally, the charge transfer and discharge mechanism of particle under uniform and non-uniform field is also investigated. The newly modified equation is more general in nature and can be used for any shape of particle motion in oil whereas the existing equation mainly explained for spherical particle. The electrostatic Coulomb force experienced on the irregular-shaped particle explicitly discussed in the presented work. The modified equation also includes the electric field gradient force component and thus can be considered valid for any particle in transformer oil under different type of field configurations.","PeriodicalId":422853,"journal":{"name":"2020 IEEE 9th Power India International Conference (PIICON)","volume":"23 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114327776","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The numbers of magnetic components in the converter, are reduced to half than that in a conventional two switch BL Cuk converter based E-rickshaw battery chargers. Therefore, the total component count is significantly reduced than the conventional one. This BL Cuk converter has the additional advantage of reduced switch voltage stress when compared to conventional BL converters. This BL PFC converter and the isolated converter are selected to operate in discontinuous conduction mode (DCM). An 850W prototype of this EV charger is tested at steady state and over the varying supply voltages.

So, this paper proposes an approach for recognition of events which causes voltage sag. This work designs new orthogonal signal-adapted wavelet basis using vector quantization for more efficacious multiresolution analysis of input signals. From filterbank of designed wavelets, most optimal wavelet basis for a particular input signal is chosen by adopting the criterion of maximum energy-to-Shannon-entropy ratio. Multiresolution analysis of the input signal using selected wavelet basis produces more distinguishing and informative feature set to be classified by naive Bayes classifier. The proposed method has achieved good classification accuracy even in the presence of noise which proves its robustness for real-time applications.","PeriodicalId":422853,"journal":{"name":"2020 IEEE 9th Power India International Conference (PIICON)","volume":"23 10","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131805532","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The effect of demagnetization brings a significant change in the motor characteristics performance including phase currents and motor back-EMF. This paper shall therefore, elaborate on the effect of demagnetization fault on the harmonics of current and back-EMF of the BLDC motor. The demagnetization faults taken in our study are uniform and extreme demagnetization effects. On the occurrence of these two faults the change in THD and percentage share of harmonics are being analyzed in order to draw an inference for the detection and classification of demagnetization faults in the motor.

The chemical composition and molecular structure of ester oil groups of natural ester oil and synthetic ester oil are entirely different from commonly used petroleum based mineral oil. The higher viscous nature of ester oil will increase the oil temperature rise, winding temperature rise, winding gradient and hot-spot temperature due to less convective heat transfer. Hence, the internal and external cooling modes of transformer needs to be analyzed extensively by transformer manufacturer to get an advantageous of ester oil for transformer applications. In this paper, Thermal Hydraulic Network Model (THNM) is effectively utilized to predict top oil temperature rise, bottom oil temperature rise, winding temperature rise, oil flow rate and hot-spot temperature on 12.5/16MVA, 132/11kV transformer winding geometry with different types of ester oil and comparing its results with mineral oil under steady state conditions. In addition, effect of different types of cooling fan mounting arrangements (vertical and horizontal manner) on 4 radiators with 3 cooling fan and 4 radiators with 4 fan are analyzed and its results are compared for ester oil and mineral oil.
