This paper describes the design of a middle-frequency power transformer, its material composition and the design of the magnetic circuit and windings, operating in the frequency range 800 to 2000Hz, with a capacity of 200kVA, air-cooled, to be fed from a suitable frequency converter, characterized by reduced noise. The proposed solution allows the implementation of galvanically isolated DC-DC converters for auxiliary traction drives and other DC-DC converters.
