Abstract: In this paper, the optimum design of round-wire dry-type air-core
reactor is considered. An optimum design model is built based on the balance of
three additional constraints, which is consist of layer resistance drop
equalization, package temperature rise equalization and package height
equalization. It is proved that the three additional constraints can not be
simultaneously satisfied for a round-wire reactor when the number of packages
is greater than 1. For this reason, the additional constraints balance is
proposed for the optimum design of a reactor. According to the optimum design
model, a new hybrid genetic algorithm combined with simplex method is
introduced and studied in detail. The hybrid genetic algorithm can enhance the
local searching ability and improve the optimization efficiency. Finally, the
proposed method is applied to the optimum design of dry-type air-core reactor,
and a satisfied result is obtained.
