Fortescue's transformation, Clarke's transformation and Karrenbauer's are all well-known tools which can be used to conduct a modal analysis of perfectly balanced transposed three-phase power transmission lines. For untransposed asymmetrical lines, however, such standard transformations fail. Nevertheless, these matrices still play an important role in determining first order approximation the exact transformation. This paper shows how this done by employing perturbation technique approach....

Most problems related to contactless energy transfer are usually dealt within the framework of transformer theory, employing equivalent electric circuits as a tool for their analysis. Here, however, physics approach based on Maxwell equations is followed. Electric and magnetic fields utilized evaluate Poynting vector, which defines direction power density carried by electromagnetic field. The concepts voltage flux define instantaneous guided transmitter. Contactless requires two separate...
