heal.abstract	The aim of the transformer design is to completely obtain the dimensions of all the parts of the transformer based on the given specification, using available materials economically in order to achieve lower cost, lower weight, reduced size and better operating performance. In this paper, a transformer design optimization method is proposed aiming at designing the transformer so as to meet the specification with the minimum cost. Results from the application of the proposed methodology demonstrate the effectiveness and practicality of this approach. (c) 2006 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.	en
