| Abstract
|
The transformer oil temperature may be measured or computed, while the
hot spot temperature can only be computed. The on-line monitoring of a
transformer's condition or rather of the condition of its insulation
involves recording of the voltage and current as well as monitoring of
the top oil temperature and, on this basis, estimation of the windings'
hot spot temperature to determine the paper insulation deterioration
rate. Following standard practices, it is assumed that the paper
insulation lifetime is identical with the transformer's lifetime.
A practical numerical program, which models a variety of winding types,
especially the regulating ones representing a variety of tap changers,
has been developed by Kinectrics codenamed "Dynamic Transformer Rating"
(DTR) for Hydro One. and will be presented during this meeting.

George Anders received a Masters Degree in Electrical Engineering
from the Technical University of Lodz in Poland, a M.Sc. Degree in
Mathematics and the Ph.D. Degree in Power System Reliability from the
University of Toronto.
Since 1975 he has been employed by Ontario Hydro, first as a System
Design Engineer and currently as a Principal Engineer/Scientist in the
T&D Technologies Department of Kinectrics Inc. Dr. Anders is an Adjunct
Professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at
the University of Toronto. He is an author of over 140 technical papers
and four books.
Dr. Anders' main interests are in the field of computational techniques
and tools for power system analysis and design. His principal activities
have been centered in two areas: (1) application of probability methods
and novel techniques like neural networks and optimization theory in
power system analysis and design, and (2) ampacity computations of
electric power cables. He is currently leading Kinectrics effort in the
area of power system reliability evaluation, decision support and risk
assessment tools and methodologies. Dr. Anders holds the title of
Project Management Professional from the Project Management Institute.
Dr. Anders is a registered Professional Engineer in Ontario and a Fellow
of IEEE.
Meir Klein is currently a Senior Engineer in the Network
Operating Division of Hydro One, where he has served for 28 years.
Currently he is responsible, among other duties, for the development and
implementation of real time asset management applications. Prior to
this, Meir has worked in transmission system planning and has been
extensively involved in the development and application of various power
system analysis tools.
Mr. Klein holds B.A.Sc. and M. Eng. degrees in Electrical Engineering -
both from the University of Toronto.
