E-lesson: Design of distribution transformers – e-lesson #9: Short circuit design
Hosted by: Mario Salano / Intermediate level
The lesson #9 is also the seventh lesson conducted on the Intermediate level. This time the author, Mr. Mario Salano, will discuss short circuit design.
As in all of the previous and upcoming lessons of this course, here too the author’s main intention is to provide an overview of transformer design by taking into account stakeholders’ wishes and preferences.
The lesson stays available on-demand upon the live broadcasting.
Mr. Salano’s expertise in the field of power transformers comes from a well established engineering skills acquired in “Salano transformers”, renowned Italian company that manufactured line-frequency power transformers for Italian power utilities. While inheriting the company from his father, Sig. Mario Salano used his vast engineering skills and he managed to maintain the company in rough period of seventies, adding new technologies and novel approaches to traditional values and products of “Salano transformers”.
His current interests include high-efficiency distribution transformers, the impact of nonlinear loads on power transformers, novel materials for transformer cores and also high-frequency power transformers for the use in conjunction with power electronics topologies.
