Abstract
- Most presented dissolved gas analysis (DGA) techniques were interested in determining the fault types (FTs), but few articles discussed the corresponding severity of these faults. Here, the thermodynamic theory is utilised to evaluate the fault severity based on the energy associated with each FT. Therefore, energy weighted DGA is proposed, where the individual gas concentration is multiplied by a relative factor that relates to the enthalpy change of reaction. A fuzzy logic system is built based on the IEC code rules, the transformer condition code that is reported in IEEE Standard C57.104-2008, and the thermodynamic theory. For enhancing the network fault diagnosis of the power transformers all over the distribution network, the proposed fuzzy logic approach is employed for its integration in accordance with the distributed agents of the distribution substations. This smart system facilitates evaluating decisions of the distributed agents as well as providing a higher decision level if needed. That is achieved by sending the important information about transformers attained by the proposed fuzzy approach such as the FT, its severity, the total dissolved combustion gases condition, the recommended action, in addition to the period of incoming action to the primary substation.
