Abstract

This article presents modeling of three-phase 315 kVA-distribution transformer. The analysis of magnetic flux density, core loss, and ohmic loss of the transformer is done using 3D finite element method (FEM). Finite element method is one of the most efficient methods used to analyze magnetic fields. The result shows the comparison between practical value and the value obtained from 3D FEM.
