Abstract

Energy efficiency is the key issue in electricity supply network, so to assure higher efficiency there is requirement of higher energy-efficient devices from supply-to-consumer network end. On the basis of this fact, this is needed to go through the study of new technological advancement in the field of transformer design. Nowadays, in this field, number of research papers has been published in the design aspects with modern technologies. Therefore, this paper detailed a comparative analysis of core and winding design of transformer. The core has been analysed on the basis of material used, their annealing temperature with corresponding structure, core coating/making technique, magnetic or electric properties with loss of energy. Similarly, winding design is also analysed on the basis of material used, type of design (architecture/structure) with corresponding magnetic and electrical properties. Latest literature in the field of core and winding design has been reported. In addition to this, new technologies have been lime lighted in the field of transformer design.
