Abstract The short circuit fault between the turns of the transformer winding accounts for 60% ∼ 70% of the whole winding fault, which seriously adversely impacts the regular functioning of the transformer. This study focuses on analysing the dynamic force and displacement characteristics of the winding in a stereo roll iron core transformer when an inter-turn short circuit occurs. First, a stereo roll iron core transformer finite element model in three dimensions is created. The electromagnetic-solid mechanics coupling method is used to figure out and study the transformer winding’s inter-turn short-circuiting current, leaking electromagnetic field, dynamic force, and displacement distributions. Furthermore, an experimental platform is built to simulate the inter-turn short-circuiting of a stereo roll iron core transformer. The displacement in the time domain and the acceleration in the frequency domain of the winding during the short circuit that occurs between turns will be recorded and analyzed. Finally, it is concluded that under normal working conditions, the winding vibration frequency is between 100 ∼ and 500 Hz. After 19 turns of the short circuit, the winding displacement increases by 32% ∼ 60%, and the high-order harmonic content of the winding vibration frequency increases significantly.
