| Objectives | Fundamental material research on improved mechanical endurance of winding insulationModelling of the thermo-mechanical impact of rapid dynamic loading on transformer windingsSensor-based condition monitoring of transformers in serviceFine tune business casePresent final report Characterise the plastic deformation of winding insulation materials due to rapid thermal and mechanical stress cyclesDevelop and validate a model that predicts the clamping pressure response due to rapid load and temperature cyclingPerform online monitoring of (clamping) pressure, and temperature in an in-service transformerCommunication and dissemination with stakeholders and working groups To characterise the long-term mechanical endurance of transformer insulation under heavy dynamic loading conditions. | |
| Abstract | Dynaload will characterise the long-term mechanical endurance of transformer insulation under heavy dynamic loading conditions through testing and modelling. | |
