| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
A variable inductor can be applied as a reactive power compensator in electric power systems, and has desirable features such as a simple and robust structure, low cost. In a previous work, a concentric-winding type three-phase variable inductor with a two-dimensional structure was proposed.
To further improved the performance, novel concentric-winding type three-phase variable inductor with a three-dimensional structure was proposed in this research. As a result, it was demonstrated that the leakage flux of the proposed three-dimensional variable inductor is reduced by more than 30%. Furthermore, a 6.6 kV-100 kVA three-dimensional variable inductor was designed and compared to its two-dimensional counterpart. It was proved that eddy current loss, which is induced within an oil-immersed self-cooled tank because of leakage flux, can be reduced to one-third of that of the two-dimensional variable inductor.
