Modeling Parallel Transformers with Base Mismatch
Description
Parallel transformers can be modeled with per-unit values even when the chosen voltage bases do not match the transformer ratings. This case creates an off-nominal turns ratio, which means the base voltages are not proportional to the rated voltages. To handle that mismatch, the transformer voltage relation is adjusted by us...

Per-unit quantity models simplify transformer analysis compared to actual quantity models. Ideally, transformer winding is eliminated when voltage base ratios match the windings' voltage ratings.
However, selecting voltage bases is challenging for parallel transformers with different ratings.
For such cases, per-unit models with of...
