Description

Field of the Invention

[0001] The invention relates to the field of electrical engineering and concerns the basic electrical engineering equipment of electric power stations, substations, power lines, in radio engineering, in devices for measuring, automatic control and regulation.

Background Art

[0002] Transformers are electromagnetic static converters of electrical energy which have two or more inductively coupled windings and are designed for the conversion of an alternating (sinusoidal) current of one voltage into an alternating current of another voltage with the same frequency.

[0003] The principle of operation of a transformer is based on the effect of electromagnetic induction found by M. Faraday in 1831 (B.N. Sergeenko, V.M. Kiselev, N.A. Akimova. Electrical Machines. Transformers. Pub. "Vysshaya Shkola," Moscow, 1989, 350 pages). In accordance with specific features of construction and use, transformers can be divided into power, welding, measuring and special transformers.

[0004] Power transformers, which are a necessary element of an industrial power network, have attained the most widespread use.

[0005] Transformers have two basic parts: a magnetic circuit and windings. Furthermore, high-power transformers have a cooling system.

[0006] The magnetic circuit is the structural base for mounting and fixing windings, taps and other elements of a transformer, and serve for amplification of the magnetic coupling between the windings.

[0007] The part of the magnetic circuit on which the windings are arranged is called the core, the remaining part, closing the magnetic circuit, is called the yoke. The windings of a transformer serve to create a magnetic field by means of which electrical power is delivered. The winding of the transformer to which electrical power is applied is called the primary winding, while the winding from which power is taken is called the secondary winding.

[0008] Known inventions are concerned with the creation of special transformers or with changes of particular structural elements of the transformer; realization of magnetic circuits from certain materials and their structural appearance, connection of magnetic circuits to each other where there is an n number of magnetic circuits, use of different types of insulation and cooling systems, realization of the windings, additional elements in order to enhance noise immunity.

[0009] A transformer is known for vehicles [PCT (WO), 93/14508]. The small-size light transformer comprises a shell-type iron core on which inductively coupled input and output windings are wound. A magnetic element with an air gap is provided between the input and output windings, while a magnetic element creating strong magnetic coupling is located between the output windings. The element is disposed in a gap 5d surrounded by the core and consists of a magnetic circuit without gaps and an insulating plate holding the magnetic circuit and insulating it from the core and windings.

[0010] A transformer is known [PCT (WO), 93/16479], in which the core is made from ferromagnetic wire. A spirally wound core from ferromagnetic wire is proposed. The core is used in a differential current sensor in a switch to open a circuit, which operates when there is a short circuit to ground. The ferromagnetic wire is wound in a spiral, the turns of which are parallel to each other and extend over the whole length of the core. The latter is positioned near current lines, with monitoring of a short circuit therein, wherein both lines are connected to a power source. The currents in them flow in opposite directions. The core interacts with a magnetic field created by those currents. Where a ferromagnetic wire is used, it is possible to substantially increase the surface area of the core without increasing its cross section, and consequently, size.

[0011] A transformer is known [RU, C1, 2041514] consisting of one or several strip cores made from a magnetic alloy comprising silicon, boron, iron and several windings inductively coupled to the core, wherein the magnetic alloy additionally comprises copper and one or several components selected from the group consisting of niobium, tantalum, tungsten, molybdenum, chromium, and vanadium, with the following ratio of alloy components, atom percent: copper - 0.5-2.0; one or several components from the group consisting of niobium, tantalum, tungsten, molybdenum, chromium, vanadium - 2-5; silicon - 5-18; boron - 4-12; iron - balance.

[0012] A transformer is known [PCT (WO), 93/18529] comprising 3 or 4 types of insulation units with one winding. Transformers of this type are easily assembled with small expenditure of time.

[0013] A current transformer with strip insulation is known [RU, C1, 2046425] comprising a single-turn or multiturn primary winding and secondary windings which are placed in a damping screen and have terminals. Wherein the aforesaid windings are secured by means of insertion support and connecting bushings and are covered with epoxy compounds. The transformer is additionally provided with insulation bushings, a screen which is placed on the primary winding, and support clamps. Insulation bushings are mounted in semi-oval slots of the clamps, the damping screen is made open and consists of two parts, with an insulating pad mounted in the gap between the two parts, and the insertion support bushings are mounted on the insulating bushings in a manner adaptable for securing the damping screen.

[0014] A high-voltage transformer is known (RU, C1, 2035776] comprising a porcelain housing mounted on a socket on which an active portion enclosed in the housing is positioned on compressing posts. The active portion consists of a mixed rectangular magnetic circuit with yokes, upper and lower horizontal cores on which windings are positioned. In order to reduce the noise immunity the transformer is provided with additional screens - a middle one, upper and lower ones, and a capacitive screen.

[0015] A winding for a high-voltage transformer is known [ PCT (WO), 93/18528]. A connecting element is secured to the conductive portion of the winding to enhance its mechanical properties, and a second connecting element is connected to the aforesaid connecting element by means of insulating elements. Such, a winding can be used as a low-voltage winding with a small number of turns in dry transformers with a resin poured over them.

[0016] A heavy-current transformer is known [RU, C1, 2027238] comprising a primary winding disposed on a toroidal core and a secondary winding encompassing the primary winding. Wherein the secondary winding is made by a bundle of flexible conductors placed in the inner cavity of the torus in N sections, and from the outer side of the torus in N-1 sections, where N is the number of turns of the secondary winding, wherein the bundle is arranged in one or more layers on the outer side of the torus.

[0017] However, all the known transformers are built according to one principle, in, particular - supplying electrical power to the primary winding and taking electrical power from the secondary winding, and they all have these drawbacks:

• multiturn secondary windings in step-up transformers, which nevertheless operate in a rather narrow frequency range (50-400 Hz); the limited frequency range of the transformers being related to losses in the magnetic circuit at higher frequencies;
• high resistance of the windings, i.e. the necessity that the no-load condition of the transformer be taken into account during calculations of the number of turns in the secondary winding to obtain a predetermined output voltage;
• the complexity of the construction of the transformers when all possible kinds of additional elements, insulation etc. are used to reduce the aforesaid drawbacks.

Disclosure of the Invention

[0018] At the base of the invention lies the object of creating such a transformer in which the possibility of winding the secondary winding with wire, including wire with a cross-section equal to the cross-section of the primary winding, is realized, reduction of the number of turns in the secondary winding of high-voltage transformers and expansion of the number of variants of existing transformers are attained.

[0019] This object is achieved in that a construction of a transformer is proposed which comprises a magnetic circuit, at least two windings, inlets for a power supply, outlets for a load, wherein the primary winding consists of two sections with an identical number of turns, the sections being connected to each other in a series circuit.

[0020] A transformer is proposed in which two sections of a primary winding are wound in one direction on one core of the magnetic circuit, the sections are connected in a series circuit by connection of the outs of the windings, and the point of their connection serves as an outlet for the load, while the ins of the windings of the sections serve as inlets for the power supply.

[0021] The aforesaid technical result is achieved by creating a transformer, two sections of the primary winding of which are wound in one direction on one core of the magnetic circuit, the outs of the windings of the sections are connected in a series circuit, while the ins of the section windings serve as inlets for the power supply.

[0022] The secondary winding is wound on the same core of the magnetic circuit, over the sections of the primary winding.

[0023] The aforesaid technical result is achieved by creating a transformer, two sections of the primary winding of which are wound in opposing directions on one core of the magnetic circuit, the out of the winding of the first section and the in of the winding of the second section are connected to each other in a series circuit, while the in of the winding of the first section and the out of the winding of the second section serve as inlets for the power supply.

[0024] The secondary winding is wound on the same core of the magnetic circuit over the sections of the primary winding.

[0025] The indicated object is achieved by creating a transformer in which both sections of the primary winding are wound in one direction on two cores of one magnetic circuit, the out of the winding of the first section and the in of the winding of the second section are connected to each other in a series circuit, while the in of the winding of the first section and the out of the winding of the second section serve as inlets for the power supply. The secondary winding is wound on both sections of the primary winding, encompassing both cores of the magnetic circuit.

[0026] The same technical result is achieved by creating a transformer in which both sections of the primary winding are wound in opposing directions on two cores of one magnetic circuit, the outs of the windings of the sections are connected to each other in a series circuit, while the ins of the windings of the sections serve as inlets for the power supply.

[0027] The secondary winding is wound on both sections of the primary winding, encompassing both cores of the magnetic circuit.

[0028] The same technical result is achieved when both sections of the primary winding are wound in one direction on two cores of one magnetic circuit, wherein the in of the winding of the first section is connected to the out of the winding of the second section, the out of the winding of the first section is connected to the in of the winding of the second section, the points of their connection serve as inlets for the power supply.

[0029] The secondary winding is wound on both sections of the primary winding, encompassing both cores of the magnetic circuit.

[0030] The indicated object is achieved by creating a transformer in which two sections of the primary winding are wound in opposing directions on two cores of one magnetic circuit, both sections are connected to each other by connection of the ins and outs thereof respectively, and the points of their connection serve as inlets for the power supply.

[0031] The secondary winding is wound on both sections of the primary winding, encompassing both cores of the magnetic circuit.

[0032] The following lies at the base of the invention: sections of the primary winding are wound and connected to each other in such a manner that the magnetic flux created by one of such sections during operation of the transformer compensates the magnetic flux created by the other section of the primary winding.

[0033] If the two sections of the primary winding of the proposed transformer are connected to an alternating current network having a voltage U₁, then a current i_o will flow therealong. The magnetomotive force of one section of the winding i_ow₁ due to the current i_o creates an alternating magnetic flux F₁ in the magnetic circuit of the transformer. Similarly, a magnetomotive force i_ow₂, which is equal to the mmf of the first section i_ow₁, appears in the second section of the winding. Since the sections are connected to each other in a series circuit, the alternating magnetic flux F₂ appearing in the second section of the primary winding and directed counter to the magnetic flux F₁ will compensate the magnetic flux of the first section F₁. However, due to the induction of the mmf the permeability of the magnetic circuit changes. When the network current drops during half-cycles, restoration of he permeability occurs in the magnetic circuit, and consequently, an electromotive force (emf) is induced in the primary and secondary windings. Wherein, during a half-cycle of current in the primary winding, the voltage in the secondary winding passes through a whole period.

[0034] In the case where both windings are wound in opposing directions with an identical number of turns, but are connected to each other in a series circuit by opposing leads (the out of the winding of the first section and the in of the winding of the second section), the magnetic flux in the primary winding i_o will also be equal to zero, i.e. the same technical result can be attained as in the case where the windings of both sections are wound in one direction. When R_H is connected to the secondary winding, the form of the voltage does not change. The output voltage depends on an increase of the number of turns in the secondary winding as compared with the number of turns in the primary winding.

[0035] Such a realization of the proposed transformer results in:

1) a reduction in the number of turns in the secondary winding by 10-20 times, and consequently, the dimensions of the transformer are reduced;

2) the possibility of winding the secondary winding with a thick wire having a cross section equal to the cross section of the wire in the primary winding;

3) the secondary winding having a number of turns either greater or less than the number of turns in the primary winding, depending on the necessity of a high voltage at the output of the transformer.

Best Variants of Carrying Out the Invention

[0037] A comprehensive description of embodiments of the transformer being patented in accordance with the invention is given below.

[0038] A transformer in accordance with the invention (according to the embodiment shown in Fig. 1) comprises a magnetic circuit 1, a first section 2 of a primary winding, a second section 3 of the primary winding, a₁ and x₁ -the in and out of the winding of the first section, a₂ and x₂ - the in and out of the winding of the second section of the primary winding, R_H1 - the resistance of a load connected to the first section, R_H2 - the resistance of a load connected to the second section of the primary winding. The two sections of the primary winding are wound on the magnetic circuit 1: the first section 2, the second section 3 thereon in one direction, and they have an identical number of turns. The outs x₁ and x₂ of the windings are connected to each other in a series circuit, while the ins a₁ and a₂ of the windings are separately connected to a power supply. A load resistance is connected parallel to each section of the winding: R_H1 in the path of the current from the power supply to the first section of the winding and to the point of connection of the windings of the sections, and R_H2 correspondingly to the second section of the primary winding.

[0039] A transformer in accordance with the invention according to the embodiment shown in Fig. 2 is made similar to the transformer according to the embodiment shown in Fig. 1. A distinction is in the presence of secondary winding 4, which is wound in a third layer on the sections 2 and 3 of the primary winding on the same core of the magnetic circuit 1. A and X designate the inlet and outlet (in and out of the phase) of the secondary winding, R_H - the resistance of the load connected to the leads A and X of the secondary winding.

[0040] A transformer in accordance with the invention according to the embodiment according to Fig. 3 is made similar to the transformer according to the embodiment shown in Fig. 2. A distinction is that the sections of the primary winding are wound in opposing directions. The out of the winding of the first section x₁ and the in of the winding of the second section a₂ are connected to each other in a series circuit, the other leads of the sections a₁ and x₂ serve as inlets for the power supply.

[0041] A transformer in accordance with the invention according to the embodiment shown in Fig. 4 is made similar to the transformer according to the embodiment shown in Fig. 2. A distinction is that the sections of the primary winding 2 and 3 are wound on two cores of the magnetic circuit 1. The sections are connected to each other via opposite leads - the out of the winding of the first section and the in of the winding of the second section. Secondary winding 4 is wound on both sections of the primary winding and encompasses both cores of the magnetic circuit.

[0042] A transformer in accordance with the invention according to the embodiment shown in Fig. 5 is made similar to the transformer according to the embodiment shown in Fig. 4. A distinction is that the two sections of the primary winding are wound in opposing directions, the outs x₁ and x₂ of the windings of the sections are connected to each other in a series circuit, while the ins a₁ and a₂ of the windings of the sections serve as inlets for the power supply.

[0043] A transformer according to the embodiment shown in Fig. 6, in accordance with the invention, is made similar to the transformer according to the embodiment shown in Fig. 4 A distinction is that the in of the first section a₁ and the out of the second section x₂, and also the out of the first section x₁ and the in of the second section a₂ are connected to each other, and the points of their connection serve as inlets for the power supply.

[0044] A transformer according to the embodiment shown in Fig. 7, in accordance with the invention, is made similar to the transformer according to the embodiment shown in Fig. 6. A distinction is that the sections are wound in opposing directions, by the ins a₁ and a₂ and by the outs x₁ and x₂ the windings of the sections are connected to each other, and the points of their connection serve as inlets for the power supply.

[0045] The principle of operation of the proposed transformer according to the embodiment shown in Fig. 1 is as follows.

I. Open circuit (no-load conditions)

[0046] The ins a₁ and a₂ of the windings of sections 2 and 3 are separately connected to a power supply U, the outs x₁ and x₂ of the windings of those same sections are connected to each other in a series circuit. Wherein a current i flows through the windings of those sections, this current causing the occurrence of a magnetomotive force mmf in each section of the winding which is equal to iw. Since the fluxes in each section are equal and directed in opposing directions they are mutually compensated and reversal of magnetization of the core does not occur, but as a consequence of maintenance of the principle of superposition of magnetic fields in a magnetic circuit, the latter interacts with the fields on a microscopic level which results in stressed interaction of a domain structure and a change in the magnetic permeability of the material of the magnetic circuit. Thus, a change of the current passing through the sections of the primary winding in time results in a change of the permeability, while a change of the latter causes an emf to appear in those windings between the point of connection of the sections and the ins of the windings, but shifted by phase in time relative to the current passing from the supply source. Due to this, the voltage at the output of the transformer is increased by 10-20 times with actually just one primary winding.

II. 0perating mode (with a load connected)

[0047] The load resistance R_H1 is connected in the path of the current i from the power supply U to the first section 2 of the winding and to the point of connection of the outs of the sections, the load resistance R_H2 is connected accordingly to the second section 3 of the winding. The current i from the power supply is passed through the formed closed loop, wherein the primary current i is increased in each loop proportionally to the load R_H, which results in a change of the emf in the loop - an increase of the emf.

[0048] At a low load resistance (equal to the resistance of the winding) the voltage U will be equal to the voltage drop on the winding, when the load resistance tends to increase to infinity, the secondary voltage U will increase proportionally, as a result of which the emf at the output of the transformer will increase dozens of times when there is one primary winding.

[0049] The principle of operation of the transformer according to the embodiments shown in Figs. 2-7 is similar to the principle of operation of the transformer according to the embodiment shown in Fig. 1.

[0050] A distinction lies in the presence of a secondary winding 4. Since the primary winding for the mmf in those embodiments remains open, a no-load emf is always induced therein, i.e. a self-inductance current is not created in the winding and all the mmf energy is provided as an emf of the secondary winding. Under such conditions, the intensity of the electric field per unit of length of the conductor of the winding in the secondary winding can exceed by ten times the intensity of the electric field in the primary winding, which is set by the power supply. As a result the secondary winding can have a fewer number of turns as compared with the primary winding, while the voltage is dozens of times greater than the mains voltage. Wherein the form of the voltage and current in the secondary winding repeats the form of the voltage and current in the primary winding.

[0051] Fig. 8 shows a stylized dependence of the increase of current and voltage in the primary and secondary windings of a transformer with a ferrite magnetic circuit.

[0052] It should be noted that the permeability µ of the magnetic circuit changes in time in the following manner with a sinusoidal form of current: it increases from 0 to π/4, then from π/4 to π/2 it drops, and from π/2 to π3/4 the speed of restoration of the permeability again increases and from π3/4 to π the restoration of µ is slower. As a result of such a change of the magnetic permeability, an emf is induced in the secondary winding at a doubled frequency and there is a complete period of the secondary current for one half-period of the current in the primary winding.

[0053] Fig. 9 shows a stylized dependence of an increase of current and voltage in the primary and secondary windings of a transformer with a magnetic circuit of sheet steel. With this type of magnetic circuit there is a shift of the form of the primary and secondary current curve from π/6 to π/4 while the form of the current is maintained.

[0054] The transformation ratio for each type of transformer was experimentally determined.

[0055] Concrete examples of operation of different types of transformers are given below in order to better understand the invention. The same results were obtained with embodiments of transformers for which examples are not provided.

The number of turns in the sections was identical and equal to 60. The transformation ratio for this transformer was 11. The results of measurement of the voltage at the output of the transformer are presented in Table 1, example 1.

[0060] The number of turns of one section of the primary winding was 110, the number of turns of the secondary winding was also equal to 110, the diameter of the wires in the primary and secondary windings was identical and equal to 1.2 mm. A load was connected to the leads of the secondary winding. The voltage was measured at the input of the primary winding and at the output of the secondary winding, i.e. on the load. The results of measurements are presented in Table 1, example 2.

The sections were wound in opposing directions, but with an identical number of turns. The total number of turns in the primary winding was 120. The outs of the windings of the sections were connected in a series circuit, the ins were connected to a power supply. A secondary winding, encompassing both cores, was wound on the primary winding. The number of turns in the secondary winding was 120. The transformation ratio was determined and found equal to 10. The results are presented in Table 1, example 3.

The secondary winding was wound on the primary winding, the number of turns in the secondary winding was 120.
