Finite Element Method Applied for the Transformers Design course – All levels

This course consists of twelve sequential 45-minute lectures that take participants from the electromagnetic fundamentals to practical 2D/3D FEM modelling of transformers. It covers building and verifying transformer FEM models, reproducing open-circuit and short-circuit tests to extract equivalent-circuit parameters, performing electrostatic field and capacitance studies, and estimating additional losses.
