Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The power transformers are an integral part of almost all electrical transmission and distribution networks. Their reliable work is of the utmost importance in modern society and factories which is dependent on a constant electricity supply. A number of factors can hinder the proper operation of the power transformer. One such problem is DC current in transformers. Direct current can be found in a transformer’s windings as a result of imperfections in connected equipment and also due to magnetic disturbances of the earth’s field. Such current can increase harmonic distortion, overheating, increased reactive power losses, elevated acoustic noise emissions and corrosion.
The Special Issue, entitled “Direct Currents in Power Transformers" was proposed for the international journal Energies, which is an SSCI and SCIE journal (2017 IF = 2.707).This special edition mainly concerns the original research and studies concerning DC currents in transformers, including but not limited to the following topics: Geomagnetically Induced Currents, Photovoltaic systems, AC and DC Drives, non-linear loads and also measuring, compensation, modeling and simulations concerning DC current in transformers. Papers selected for this Special Issue are subject to a rigorous peer review procedure with the aim of rapid and wide dissemination of research results, developments and applications.
I am writing to invite you to submit your original work to this Special Issue. I am looking forward to receiving your outstanding research.
Prof. Dr. Milan StorkGuest Editor
Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Energies is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
