摘要：The present study is devoted to questions connected with influence of solar radiation and high values of ambient air temperatures on work of digital voltage transformers. The developed designs of digital voltage transformers are included in smart grid system of technical and commercial metering of electric energy consumption. The analysis of the unfavorable conditions for work of digital voltage transformers for the conditions of Russia in summer is carried out. The results of mathematical simulation for thermal state of transformers, obtained with the help of COMSOL Multiphysics program based on the finite element method, are presented. Experimental research regarding the thermal field of resistive voltage divider transformer was conducted on a verified mathematical model in order to determine the position of resistive elements where their self-heating is minimal.
