Abstract

The demand for electrical energy is increasing day by day with the development of technology in the world. Distributing electric energy to all regions that need energy is a principal issue, and this necessitates the use of transformers to convert the voltage to the desired level. Accordingly, the use of transformers, one of the electrical devices converting AC voltage level at a defined frequency has grown significantly. In this study, design parameters of a 25 kVA, 33/0.4 kV, Yzn11, oil-type distribution transformer are optimized using the Multi-Objective Genetic Algorithm (MOGA) technique by decreasing the weight of the significant materials and manufacturing cost. Electromagnetic analysis of the transformer is performed with ANSYS Maxwell based on the design results obtained from the optimization study for validation of the method. The experimental design parameters are also compared with the optimization results. It is observed that optimum results are achieved by using the proposed approach.
