Description

The inductance matrix transformer (IMT) model reproduces the behavior of a three-phase linear transformer at power frequency. This model works with the Transformer Data Tab. Based on excitation and short-circuit tests in positive and zero sequences, the tool computes two matrices [R] and [L] modeling the transformer. The Ri and Li are the resistance and self inductance of each coil. Mij are the mutual inductances between coils. HYPERSIM simulates the transformer as mutually-coupled R-L branches.

Supports:

Does not support:

  • A three single-phase core representation 
  • Saturation
