Using the Ampere＇s law, in each core tape, the eddy current of the core lamination is equal to the arc current, and the relation of the thickness of the saturated regions for different laminations can be deduced. The total equivalent resistance of the snubber can be obtained. The transient eddy current model based on the stray capacitance and the equivalent resistance is analyzed, and the solving process is given in detail. The exponential time constant and the arc current are obtained. Then, the maximum width of the lamination and the minimum thickness of the core tape are determined. The experimental time constant of the eddy current obtained, with or without the bias current, is approximately the same as that by the analytical method, which proves the accuracy of the adopted assumptions and the analysis method.展开更多

A transformer core snubber is analyzed in detail in this paper. Several kinds of soft magnetic cores are presented and compared. With analysis and experiment on the basic characteristics of the cores, the most suitable materials are suggested.

In order to design the core snubber of ITER, the control parameters of the arc peak current have been firstly analyzed by the Fink-Baker-Owren （FBO） method, which are used for designing the DIIID 100 kV snubber. The B-H curve can be derived from the measured voltage and current waveforms, and the hysteresis loss of the core snubber can be derived using the revised parallelogram method. The core snubber can be a simplified representation as an equivalent parallel resistance and inductance, which has been neglected by the FBO method. A simulation code including the parallel equivalent resistance and inductance has been set up. The simulation and experiments result in dramatically large arc shorting currents due to the parallel inductance effect. The case shows that the core snubber utilizing the FBO method gives more compact design.展开更多
