Increasing competition in the global transformer market has put tremendous responsibilities on the industry to increase reliability while reducing cost. "Spotlight on Modern Transformer Design" introduces a novel approach to transformer design using artificial intelligence (AI) techniques in combination with finite element method (FEM). Today, AI is widely used for modeling nonlinear and large-scale systems, especially when explicit mathematical models are difficult to obtain or completely lacking. Moreover, AI is computationally efficientin solving hard optimization problems. On the other hand, FEM is particularlycapable of dealing with complex geometries, and also yields stable and accurate solutions. Many numerical examples throughout the book illustrate the application of the techniques discussed to a variety of real-life transformer design problems, including: problems relating to the prediction of no-load losses; winding material selection; and transformer design optimization. The first book to introduce artificial intelligence to transformer design INDICE: 1. Transformers.- 2. Conventional Transformer Design.- 3. Numerical Analysis.- 4. Classification and Forecasting.- 5. Optimization.- 6. Evaluation of Transformer Technical Characteristics.- 7. Transformer Design Optimization.- 8. Transformer Selection.
