A traction transformer with narrow oil channels is usually cooled with the ODAF or "Oil Directed Air Forced" method, where its temperature greatly depends on the Joule heat of windings, the conjugate heat transfer in the transformer, and the secondary heat release via oil cooler, together with the oil flowrate generated by oil pump. Neither the thermal-electric analogy nor the CFD simulation approach is qualified to predict the temporal and spatial temperature variations in this type of transformer. In the current work, the distributed parameter models are built for traction transformers and oil coolers with the assumption of a one-dimensional temperature field in the oil flow direction, respectively. Then, the two models are combined with the lumped parameter ones of oil pumps and pipes via the flow rate, temperature and pressure continuities at their interfaces, resulting in the derivation of the dynamic heat dissipation model of oil-directed and air-forced traction transformers. Additionally, an efficient algorithm is proposed for its numerical solution, and the temperature rise experiment is performed for model validation. Finally, the fundamental of dynamic heat dissipation in traction transformers is investigated with the current numerical model and the effects of ambient temperature are studied.

The process of establishing relay protection and automation (RPA) settings for electric power systems (EPSs) entails complex calculations of operating modes. Traditionally, these calculations are based on symmetrical components, which require the building of equivalent circuits of various sequences. This approach can lead to errors both when identifying the operating modes and when modeling the RPA devices.

Visible light optical coherence tomography (vis-OCT) is gaining traction for retinal imaging due to its high resolution and functional capabilities. However, the significant absorption of hemoglobin in the visible light range leads to pronounced shadow artifacts from retinal blood vessels, posing challenges for accurate layer segmentation. In this study, we present BreakNet, a multi-scale Transformer-based segmentation model designed to address boundary discontinuities caused by these shadow artifacts.

Optical coherence tomography (OCT) has become the leading imaging technique in diagnosing and treatment planning for retinal diseases. Retinal OCT image segmentation involves extracting lesions and/or tissue structures to aid in the decisions of ophthalmologists, and multi-class segmentation is commonly needed. As the target regions often spread widely inside the retina, and the intensities and locations of different categories can be close, good segmentation networks must possess both global modeling capabilities and the ability to capture fine details.
