to locate the partial discharge(PD)in power transformer
phased-ultrasonic receiving-planar array transducer technology is introduced. Considering the operation environment and material properties of transducer
a 16×16 phased-ultrasonic receiving-planar array transducer is developed
which is suitable for power transformer due to its smaller size and higher location ability
especially in high temperature insulation liquid. The center frequency and band with reach to 150 and 100 kHz
respectively. The piezoelectric source and oil interstitial discharge are examined to detect the transducer performance in lab. The experimental results show the perfect ultrasonic receiving characteristics.
