Power transformer magnetic shunt topologies: A brief review
Salvador Magdaleno-Adame
Abstract
The use of magnetic shunts in power equipment is necessary to reduce the stray losses and possible hot spots in magnetic structural and support elements. This article presents a brief review of interesting magnetic shunt configurations utilized in the power transformer industry in the last 30 years and some research about new magnetic shunt topologies is presented. Real magnetic shunt topologies utilized in power transformers are briefly presented and discussed.
