Comprehensive Analysis of Transformer Losses-Merging Experimental Insights with Simulation Techniques

The transformer in electrical power system plays a vital role for increasing the voltage for transmission and reducing for distribution and utilization. The continuous operation, over loading and poor selection of core material produces losses which badly affect the efficiency of transformer and may result in burnt out the winding. The students of electrical department conducted the survey at 132 kV grid station Larkana and physical understand the parts of transformer and execute the hand on experiments in the laboratory for the understanding of losses effect on transformer. The practical results are also authenticating through MATLAB Simulink software. The aim of this study to find out the causes and effects of losses in the transformer.
