Anisotropy in Dry‐Type Valve‐Side Bushings of Converter Transformer: Phenomena and Effects
ABSTRACT The safe and stable working of dry‐type valve‐side bushings, important components of converter transformers, is essential. In recent years, poor design has led to several core breakdown, flashover and cracking failures. The bushing cores, composed of crepe paper and aluminium foil, exhibit significant anisotropic physical properties due to its
