The Soils of Antarctica

Abstract

This paper reports on work undertaken using Artificial Neutral Networks (ANNs) to both estimate and classify the vibrational behaviour of a power transformer. The inputs to the ANNs consist of data which is typically available on-line such as voltage, current and temperature measurements. Extensive test data from an actual power transformer, fitted with the necessary instrumentation, has been used to train the ANNsa and test their performance. This project may culminate in the incorporation of this methodology in an integrated transformer condition monitoring system.
