Abstract
Special tran function theory (STFT) is a powerful nonlinear problem-solving tool. In this paper, four different nonlinear power engineering problems in the field of induction machines, power inductors, perovskite solar cells, and supercapacitors are represented via the same transcendental equation. Furthermore, the analytical solution of the derived transcendental equation is expressed by using the STFT. Comparisons of the accuracy of the presented solutions with corresponding solutions determined with numerical calculation for all observed power engineering problems are also presented. It is shown that the proposed analytical solution is applicable, simple to implement, highly accurate and low-time consuming. Furthermore, in the mathematical sense, the structures of the final expressions for all observed variables in all observed problems are simpler than literature-known analytical solutions. The Mathematica codes for different STFT solutions are given as an appendix of this paper.
