An analytical method is employed to characterize the reactive power loss of a single-phase transformer when subjected to geomagnetically induced current (GIC). A general closed-form formula is proposed to calculate the reactive power loss of the transformer as a function of the applied voltage, air-core inductance, and GIC. The developed equation reveals that the reactive […]

For the past decade, there has been an increase in the frequency and impact of natural disasters. Information and communications technology (ICT) can be used to minimize the impact of disasters in many ways. However, before deployment, disaster-related ICT systems need to be tested and validated using the appropriate modeling and simulation tools. In this […]
