The power transformer is one of the most important equipment in the electric power system, allowing the feasibility of connecting the generating centers to the consumer centers, even over long distances. Reliable and continuous operation is of fundamental importance for service maintenance and is subject to various types of disturbances that can lead to failures. In this perspective, studies of the dynamic behavior of transformer windings through computer simulations have been widely used to safely and accurately evaluate their operation. Therefore, this paper presents the methodology for research on a 50 MVA power transformer using the finite element method for static and time domain analysis. Thus, the study was performed by means of magnetic-mechanical couplings. In the first analysis (circuit study), the ATPDraw software was used to obtain the behavior of the inrush current and solidarity energization during the transformer bank energization. Therefore, in the ANSYS MAXWELL software magnetic studies were performed. For this, a real 3D model was used (taking into account the characteristics of the lamination core and windings, being in disc). Thus, the results of the behavior of magnetic induction and magnetic forces in the windings of the equipment are presented. Finally, in the ANSYS STRUCTURAL software, structural (mechanical) studies were performed. Also, as before, a close-to-real 3D model was used, presenting as results the behavior of the total deformation in the winding, the mechanical stress suffered and the degree of safety during the occurrence of energization. The static studies were considered three operating conditions: nominal condition, sympathetic inrush and inrush current. For the nominal condition, the equipment's plate data was used, for the energizing condition (sympathetic inrush and inrush current) the largest amplitude obtained during the simulation was used. It is noteworthy that for the time domain analysis, only the condition of the inrush current was analyzed, both for the high computational cost required and for being the worst condition in the static analysis.

The electricity sector in Brazil has faced many changes due to the modernization of electrical equipment, especially when it refers to residential consumers. This has provided a considerable increase in the level of harmonic distortion in the electric distribution networks, which can be explained by the large use of devices based on power electronics in an attempt to make them more efficient and compact. Therefore, it becomes necessary execute analysis of the levels of harmonic distortion in the power systems. Monitoring by power quality analyzer is the best way to collect data of the electrical system; however, the computer simulation is an efficient tool capable of reproducing the disturbances and behavior of the electric networks for different operating modes. Thus, this paper aims to present a computational environment that helps the harmonic propagation studies in electrical systems. For this, it was used the software ATP (Alternative Transient Program) for modeling the electrical system, the harmonic behavior of a nonlinear load is represented by effective values of harmonic currents in function of time. The measurements were obtained through power quality analysis of a distribution network in the North Region of Brazil. Thus, for this set of measures, a set of simulations was performed, providing for the users the values of harmonic voltages for all buses of the electrical system. Therefore, with the simulator of electrical networks it is possible perform harmonic propagation studies in several electrical systems, and it can work as a strategic planning tool for the use of mitigating measures or for the strategic control of harmonic distortion, from evaluations of most critical moments of harmonic distortion at all points of the network. To demonstrate its use, the industrial system of 13 bar was used as a test system for analysis in this dissertation.
