Paper Details

— Since independence in India there has always been shortage of electricity and at no point of time wehave been able to meet the peak demand. The gap between the demand and generation can be bridged/ minimizedby either improving the installed capacity or reducing the consumer demand. The gap between availability &demand is of order 6% as on date. If we take into account the issues like environment pollution and globalwarming, the preferred option is to increase the energy efficiency or minimize the consumer demand, as in theother alternative particularly in India where thermal generation dominates increased environmental pollution isinevitable. The paper covers design of transformer using a new technology superior magnetic material with thinsheets of lazer grade or amorphous core. Iron Boron Silicon amorphous alloy is a unique alloy whose structure ofmetal atoms occurs in random patters as opposed to conventional CRGO steel which has an organized crystallinestructure. The paper covers design of distribution transformer using conventional material and the new technologyimproved core materials. The reflection on the no-load and load losses due to change in the material have beenworked out. Commercial and technical feasibility for adoption of new technology core material has been detailedout and the payback period is quite attractive. By reducing the regular occurred power loss in the transformer,economy of the power sector and global environmental impact can be improved
