PY - 2009 TI - Comparison of Losses and Flux Distribution in 3 Phase 100 kVA Distribution Transformers Assembled from Various Type of T-Joint Geometry JF - American Journal of Applied Sciences VL - 3 IS - 9 DO - 10.3844/ajassp.2006.1990.1992 UR - https://thescipub.com/abstract/ajassp.2006.1990.1992 AB - This paper describes results of an investigation of the variation of power loss, building factor, flux leakage and flux distribution in 3-phase model transformer cores assembled from various type of T-joint geometry. The loss of the core with T-joint 60o was 10%, 12% and 15% better than the core with T-joint 45o, T-joint 23o and T-joint 90o respectively and 1.7 T, 50 Hz. The flux lines showed that flux penetration into the central limb was an important factor in causing the differences in performance.
