Student: I can't figure out how to do that, since I can't seem to cut off more than two of the four corners. Mentor: Don't worry, what I asked you to do is actually impossible! There are only six faces on a cube, so the highest number of sides possible is six. Student: That makes sense. I bet you can do that with any prism-it's just a matter of angling the cross section correctly to intersect all of the faces. Mentor: You're very right, any prism can be cut in such a way that the cross section has as many sides as the prism has faces. However, not all shapes have this same property.
Recently, a new technology i.e. variable frequency transformer (VFT) has emerged as a flexible ac link to transfer power in-between asynchronous power grids. Hence, this paper aims to explore the possibility of grid integration of PMSG based WTG using VFT.
A transformer is an electrical device that transfers electrical energy between two or more circuits through electromagnetic induction.Electromagnetic induction produces an electromotive force across a conductor which is exposed to time varying magnetic fields.ommonly, transformers are used to increase or decrease the voltages of alternating current in electric power applications. A varying current in the transformer's primary winding creates a varying magnetic flux in the transformer core and a varying magnetic field impinging on the transformer's secondary winding.
