| Abstract: | This paper presents a systematic methodology for time-domain modeling of three-phase power transformers aimed at electromagnetic transient analysis in shipboard and embedded electrical systems. Accurate modeling of transformers in such environments is critical, as naval power systems are subject to strict electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) requirements and are particularly susceptible to fast transients caused by switching operations, fault events, and nonlinear loads operating in confined and isolated grids. The proposed approach combines the Vector Fitting (VF) algorithm with Clarke modal decomposition to obtain stable, passive, and causal rational approximations of the frequency-dependent admittance matrix over a wide frequency range. The admittance matrix is first identified from frequency-domain measurements or simulations, capturing the transformer's terminal behavior across multiple frequency sub-bands. Clarke's transformation is then applied to decouple the three-phase system into independent modal components—namely the zero-sequence and positive-sequence modes, reducing the original multi-phase problem to a set of independent single-phase systems. This modal decoupling significantly improves computational efficiency without sacrificing accuracy, as each mode can be fitted and simulated independently. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
