Abstract
Purpose – The paper presents a mathematical model for the hysteresis phenomenon in a multi-winding single-phase core type transformer. The set of loop differential equations was developed for Kth winding transformer model where the flux linkages of each winding includes a flux common Φ to all windings as function of magneto motive force Θ of all windings. The purpose of this paper is to first determine a hysteresis nonlinearity involved in Φ(Θ) function using modified Preisach theory and second to develop new analytical formula of Preisach distribution function (PDF). Design/methodology/approach – It is assumed in this paper that flux linkage characteristics Ψ(i) of each winding have nonlinear component due to the magnetization characteristic of the steel core and sum of linear components due to the self and mutual leakage fluxes. This nonlinear component of Ψ(i) characteristic can be expressed as a flux common Φ to all windings vs ampere-turns Θ of all windings. The nonlinear flux linkage characteristics...
