AbstractThe purpose of this study was to validate a
designed three phase distribution transformer with modern
software that use finite element method, by analyze it from three
points of view: magnetic, structural and thermal. For that, on the
analysis it will be used two modules from AN! software,
AN! "a#well $% and AN! "echanical &tructural and
Thermal', both coupled in the same environment, AN!
(or)bench. *t has used the latest versions from AN!,
(or)bench +, and "a#well $% -.+/. 0+1 2n the same time, it
can be seen the $% magnetic nonlinear behavior of this three
phase distribution transformer, structural and thermal effects for
the ferromagnetic core. Also it can be found the magnitude of 3
field, the regions with problems and the value of the total core
losses for the same transformer.
