2 HITRIN HIGH FREQUENCY TRANSFORMER PROGRAM PROGRAM DESCRIPTION AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS I. INTRODUCTION HITRIN is a powerful computer-aided design program, which is a companion program to TRANS intended for high frequency applications up to 2.8 MHz. It is capable of processing a large volume of information, performing all necessary calculations and producing design solutions in less time than it would take an individual designer to prepare the same information. It is intended to be used by experienced transformer designers as an extension to their engineering capabilities and relies on their background for judgment and subjective analysis of the results obtained. The computational power of HITRIN enables the designer to examine many alternatives and quickly provides the effects of each decision made during the design process. HITRIN is an interactive program that allows the user to establish and maintain custom data files containing proprietary material, cost and labor information. This gives the user greater control over a wide range of design considerations. It enables the designer to research more efficient and most cost effective design solutions, resulting in improved product quality, improved productivity and lower costs. II. FEATURES CUSTOM DATABASE HITRIN operates using a database of materials supplied by the individual user. This feature allows the designer to further control the material types and sizes to be considered. With conductor selection options, the program is limited to selecting components readily available from the user s own inventory of materials. The database contains core information for the standard ferrite shapes including Toroid, E-cores, Pot cores, PQ cores, EC Cores, PM Cores, RM cores, UU and UI cores. The program also considers LITZ wire conductors. THERMAL MODELING HITRIN uses sophisticated thermal network modeling techniques to determine temperature rise. The thermal model is developed using a comprehensive nodal circuit analysis routine that considers the effects of the mechanical structure as well as the thermal characteristics of the materials used in the design. This provides more accurate results in the temperature calculations. ELECTRICAL ANALYSIS Extended analysis of a fixed design is further enhanced in HITRIN. Subroutines now include Temperature, Frequency, Duty Cycle, Impedance, Load Performance, Set Turns, Input Volts and Loss Summary. Enhancements are continuously being made to expand capabilities and to improve HITRIN. 2

3 III. USE HITRIN will design a broad range of single or three-phase transformers with or without rectified outputs. Standard industry winding schemes can be accommodated. Cooling methods available are air, forced-air and oil-filled. HITRIN is used to design such as High Frequency Power Transformer, Switch Mode Power Supply Transformer, High Voltage High Frequency Pulsed Transformer, High Current Transformer III. INPUT REQUIREMENTS For entry of design information see Page 6. DISCLAIMER This program and its documentation have been subjected to normal field testing procedures. Optimized Program Service, Inc. makes no warranty, expressed or implied, as to the documentation and the performance of the program. Users are expected to make the final evaluation as to the value and correctness of the results obtained for their specific application. 3

56 I. AUTO TRANSFORMERS To design Auto Transformers using HITRIN, the input data must be arranged to simulate a twowinding transformer to obtain the proper current for each voltage section. This is accomplished by calculating an "equivalent" volt-ampere rating in the output section that, combined with the equivalent VA of the input section, will produce the actual VA rating of the transformer with the correct currents. Single-Phase Auto Transformer Single-Phase Auto Transformer A. Output Current Output VA = V 2 x I 2 Output VA eq = (1 - V 2 / V 1 ) x Output VA therefore: V 2 I 3 = VA eq and, I 3 = VA eq /V 2 B. Current of Input Section (V 1 - V 2 ) x I 1 = Input VA eq and I 1 = VA eq /(V 1 - V 2 ) 56

57 C. Design Procedure Step 1 Determine Output VA equivalent. VA eq = (1-Low Voltage/Nominal High Voltage) x Rating actual where: Rating actual = V out x I out Step 2 Determine secondary (output section) Current. (Is) DATA ENTRY HITRIN Is = VA eq /Low Voltage For Primary voltage PRIMARY WINDING DATA PAGE-1 enter LO VOLTS, NOM VOLTS and HI VOLTS. For Secondary Winding Volts(low voltage) and Current SECONDARY WINDING DATA PAGE-1 enter V s and I s. Design Example: 1. VA eq = (1-48/115) x (48 x 5.5) = Is = /48 = 3.2 (Enter as secondary winding current) 3. Vs = 48 (Enter as secondary winding voltage) PRIMARY INPUT DATA Low V=62 Nom V=67 Hi V=72 (110-48=62; =67; =72) ****NOTE: PRIMARY AND SECONDARY ARE CONNECTED IN SERIES**** 57

58 Three-Phase Auto Transformers are designed using the same procedures as single-phase using LINE VOLTAGE and LINE CURRENT values. DATA ENTRY HITRIN Primary Voltage PRIMARY WINDING DATA PAGE-1 enter High Voltage - Low Voltage. Secondary Voltage SECONDARY WINDING DATA PAGE-1 enter Low Voltage. Secondary Current SECONDARY WINDING DATA PAGE-1 enter Is (from Step 2). (Select both Primary and secondary as "WYE" configuration). DESIGN EXAMPLE: OUTPUT RATING: 9 KVA INPUT VOLTAGES: 600/660 OUTPUT VOLTAGE: 480 Therefore: Nominal Voltage is 600V Lowest Voltage is 480V VA eq = (1-480/600) x 9KVA x 1000 = 1800 For Primary: Enter As: Lo Volts=120 Nom Volts=120 Hi Volts=180 For Secondary: Voltages are: = = 180 Voltage is 480 Current is VAeq = 1800 = x voltage 3 x 480 Enter As: Winding Volts = 480 Winding Current = 2.17 ****PRIMARY AND SECONDARY ARE CONNECTED IN SERIES**** 58

59 II. SPECIAL USE OF POWER FACTOR ENTRY For use when the sum of two secondary VA's are greater than the rated Primary VA. Procedure: Case 1 - VA3 larger than VA1 Let: VA1 = VA of larger secondary VA2 = VA of smaller secondary VA3 = VA of primary PF1 = Power factor of secondary 1 PF2 = Power of factor of secondary 2 Where: Entries are: PF1 = (VA3) 2 - (VA2) 2 + (VA1) 2 2 x VA3 x VA1 PF2 = (VA3) 2 - (VA1) 2 + (VA2) 2 2 x VA3 x VA2 ****NOTE: PF2 is always entered as a NEGATIVE number for Case 1.

64 EXTENDED ANALYSIS The Extended Analysis Subroutine allows the designer to further evaluate a fixed design for further operational characteristics. It can only be accessed after executing the design program by selecting the EXTENDED ANALYSIS button. A menu page will then appear to allow selection of the choices when needed the program will prompt for additional information. (Duty cycle, load currents, winding turns, etc) 64

65 EXTENDED ANALYSIS (continued) LOAD PERFORMANCE: The program will provide the electrical characteristics (regulation, efficiency, %IR, %IX, %IZ, coil loss, and temperature rise) for loading at 25, 35, 50, 65, 75, 100, 125, and 150 percent. Note: This option can only be run by itself. TEMPERATURE: Electrical characteristics will be re-calculated at the inputted temperature value. FREQUENCY: Electrical characteristics will be re-calculated at the inputted frequency value. DUTY CYCLE: Electrical characteristics will be re-calculated at the inputted duty cycle value. IMPEDANCE: The program will provide the impedance characteristics including %IR, %IX, lead %IX, %IZ, and short-circuit current and inrush current (absolute peak and practical). EXTENDED ANALYSIS (continued) 65

66 LOSS SUMMARY: The program will show all losses for each winding including, I 2 R loss, eddy current loss, and stray loss. CHANGE LOAD: Allows the designer to obtain operating characteristics for different loading or duty cycles (as entered by the user). SET TURNS: Allows the designer to obtain operating characteristics for slight changes in the winding turns (as entered by the user) used primarily for checking turns round-off. INPUT VOLTS: Allows the designer to obtain operating characteristics at different input volts and taps (as entered by the user). 66
