Power transformer partial discharge signal measurement using Radio Frequency method has advantages over IEC 60270 'apparent charge' measurement method for online monitoring due to greater immunity against external interference. However, the lack of a well-defined calibration relationship between the two methods is main disadvantage of RF method. Simultaneous measurements, using these two methods, carried out on various transformer PD source models, in laboratory, to investigate main parameters that affect the relationship of results of these two methods. In this paper, factors that influence this relationship are classified into three groups: (i) type of PD sources, (ii) transformer windings as PD signal transmitter, and (iii) the inner structure of the transformer. Firstly, the relationship between these two methods has been investigated for some simple types of PD sources. Subsequently, by adding the winding structure model to the void, which is the PD source, its impact on each measurement method and the relationship between them have been studied. The impact of inner structure on the relation between the two methods is compensated through a formula which is proposed as a means for calibration of the RF partial discharge measurement setup. However to compensate for internal insulating system effects more research is required.

Frequency Dependent Dielectric Properties of ZnSe/p-Si Diode
Güllü, Hasan Hüseyin; YILDIZ, DİLBER ESRA (2019-03-01)
The study on electrical and dielectric properties of the ZnSe/p-Si diode have been investigated using admittance measurements in the frequency range of 50 kHz - 1 MHz at room temperature. The experimental values of dielectric constant and dielectric loss are found in decreasing behavior with increase in frequency due to the characteristics of the interface capacitance in the diode and so that the similar behavior was observed in loss tangent. With the contribution of the series resistance, the results of th...
Highly Integrated 3 V Supply Electronics for Electromagnetic Energy Harvesters With Minimum 0.4 V-peak Input
Ulusan, Hasan; Zorlu, Ozge; Muhtaroglu, Ali; Külah, Haluk (2017-07-01)
This paper presents a self-powered interface enabling battery-like operation with a regulated 3 V output from ac signals as low as 0.4 V-peak, generated by electromagnetic energy harvesters under low frequency vibrations. As the first stage of the 180 nm standard CMOS circuit, harvested signal is rectified through an ac/dc doubler with active diodes powered internally by a passive ac/dc quadrupler. The voltage is boosted in the second stage through a low voltage charge pump stimulated by an on-chip ring osc...
