Abstract

Electricity produced at power plants is distributed to consumers through several stages of substations. At this time, an ultra-high voltage transformer is needed in the initial transmission stage to transmit a voltage suitable for each consumer. A high voltage, non-uniform electric field is formed at the end of the winding of the ultra-high voltage transformer, which carries a risk of dielectric breakdown. The winding of the ultra-high voltage transformer is an electrode, which is the key to converting the magnitude of the voltage. A non-uniform electric field is formed along the shape of the winding end, resulting in high electrical stress. The static ring installed at the upper and lower ends of the winding is used to disperse the stress at the winding end. Several variables should be considered when designing a static ring. Among them, this study examined how the curvature of the static ring, the thickness of the insulating paper, the number of barriers, and barrier thickness affect the electrical stress of the static ring using the Finite Element Method. Suggestions to be considered when designing the static ring are proposed through the FEM results.

발전소에서 생산된 전기는 여러 단계의 변전과정을 거쳐 소비자에게 전달된다. 이 때 각 소비자에게 적합한 전압으로 송전하기 위해 초기 송전단계 및 산업단지 및 공장과 같은 고전압이 필요한 경우에 사용되는 초고압변압기는 권선 단부에서 고압의 불평등 전계가 형성되어 절연파괴의 위험을 내재하고 있다. 초고압변압기는 전압의 승압과 강압을 위해 권선, 철심이 가장 중요한 부품이다. 특히 권선의 경우 전압이 직접 인가되면서 전압의 크기를 변환하는데 핵심적인 역할을 한다. 이때 권선 단부는 그 형상에 의해 불평등 전계가 형성되고 특히 권선의 모서리에 높은 전계 스트레스가 발생한다. 이러한 불평등 전계에 의한 권선 단부의 전기적 응력을 분산하기 위하여 정전링을 사용하는데 이 정전링은 권선 상·하단 단부에 설치된다. 이러한 정전링을 설계하기 위해서는 다양한 변수를 고려하여야 하지만 그 중 정전링 곡률, 정전링 표면의 절연지 두께, 권선과 권선사이에 설치되는 배리어 수, 배리어 두께가 정전링에 발생되는 전계 스트레스에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지 유한요소법(Finite Element Method)을 통해 확인하였고 그 결과를 통해 정전링 설계 시 고려해야 할 사항을 제안하였다.
