Beschreibung:
Power Transformer Online Monitoring using Electromagnetic Waves explores how to use electromagnetic wave technology and remote monitoring systems to predict and localize costly mechanical defects and partial discharge challenges in high voltage transformer windings. This innovative approach brings several potential benefits compared with conventional techniques such as frequency response analysis, including impermeability to ambient noise, and online implementation capability. This book reviews both fundamental and state-of-the-art information about all key aspects of condition monitoring using electromagnetic waves. It addresses the simulation of power transformers in CST environment while also explaining the theoretical background of boundary conditions used. Chapters review how to achieve practical online implementation, reliable diagnosis, asset management and remnant life estimation. Partial discharge detection is also discussed.
