Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Effects of Harmonic Components on Transformer Losses of Sinusoidal Source Supplying Non-Linear LoadsI. Daut, H. S. Syafruddin, Rosnazri Ali et al.An important consideration when evaluating the impact of harmonics is their effect on power system component and loads. Transformers are major components in power systems. The increased losses due to harmonic distortion can cause excessive losses and hence abnormal temperature rise. The measurement of iron losses and copper losses of single-phase transformers is important in particular for transformers feeding nonlinear … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2006 · 8,398 accessesView PDF Cite
