  • Leakage reactance plate for power transformer
    Patent number: 11139109
    Abstract: Unique systems, methods, techniques and apparatuses of a power transformer are disclosed. One exemplary embodiment is a transformer comprising a core; a first winding wound around the core; a second winding coaxially wound around the first winding so as to surround the first winding and forming an air gap between the first winding and second winding; and a plate having a relative permeability greater than 1 and less than 25 structured to be inserted into the air gap.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: September 7, 2018
    Date of Patent: October 5, 2021
    Assignee: ABB Power Grids Switzerland AG
    Inventors: Matthew Lee Henriksen, Parag Upadhyay

  • Flexible voltage transformation system
    Patent number: 10483032
    Abstract: Unique systems, methods, techniques and apparatuses of a modular power transformer are disclosed. One exemplary embodiment is a matrix power transformer including a plurality of block assemblies each including a plurality of transformer modules, each transformer module including a primary winding coupled to an input and a secondary winding coupled to an output, the inputs of each transformer module in one block assembly being coupled together and the outputs of each transformer block being coupled together. One of the secondary windings includes a plurality of taps structured to be selectively coupled to the output of the associated transformer module assembly or another secondary winding of the associated module assembly.
