Abstract |
This paper presents the electric field analysis for 2[MVA] mold transformer using finite element method. The electric field was calculated for the voltage applied to the mold transformer without voids in the insulating material. Then, it was analysed the maximum electric field when the voids was in the insulating materials. And the starting voltage of partial discharge was predicted due to the voids. The effects of voids in epoxy resin on the electric field were investigated for different sizes, shapes, positions and arrangements of voids. |
