Finite element analysis of current transformer in power system

Abstract

As a low- cost sensor, the C-core Hall sensor finds its application in wide area. The magnetic field strength at Hall element is the important parameter of the interest in C-core current sensors. The main objective of this paper is to calculate the B field at the centre of the air gap. Open loop current sensor using FEA tool for mid-range sensing applications with C-core using hall sensing technology is designed.
