Computer Aided Design Of The Magnetic Circuit Of A 3- Phase Power Transformer

In this paper, a computer program was developed in C++ language to determine the parameters of the magnetic circuit of a three-phase power transformer. A typical case study was used to demonstrate the effectiveness of the program. The program was developed using the mathematical models derived for the parameters to be determined, Apart from being flexible and speedy, the program removed the drudgery involved in the design and demonstrated the usefulness of software as both a teaching and research aid. Tables and graphs obtained from the program showed how the design problems were dealt with and how the parameters of the magnetic circuit were determined
