I believe a simple test would disprove this quickly. circulating currents will try to even current loads out but no way can a Z of 2 coils in series cause equal current to current in 1 coil alone. Sure it will try, and it will help, but it cant make the current equal in all 3 inputs.
I've not studied this issue and have some doubts in principles here...
I feel you are comparing the delta primary windings' currents as if they were secondary windings. On delta secondaries, a single phase, line-to-line load current is shared among the three secondary windings at a ratio of 1z for the direct winding and 2z for the two indirect windings. Correct?
Now, when the delta is the primary and the secondary wye-configured, I feel the preceeding is not true of the delta primary. Consider a single phase, line-to-neutral load current. It is only across one secondary winding, say A to N. The correlating primary winding is connected A-C. If the primary current was shared with windings connected B-A and C-B, would that not also induce a current on secondary windings B-N and C-N? ...and just where is that secondary current going to go if there is no connected load? ...or does current flow on all three primary windings regardless of secondary current? Also is there a difference in this regard between a bank of three single-phase transformers and one three-phase transformer.
I see circulating currents in delta windings as follows. Winding currents are out-of-phase. At each winding connection (KCL node) you have the line conductor and the ends of two windings. There will be instances where the current of one winding is incoming to the node (say positive) while the current of the other winding is outgoing (say negative). We also note that the line current at those instances is equal to the sum of the windings' currents. But since at those instances one winding current is positive and the other negative with respect to the node, the sum (line current) will be less than sum of their absolute values. What I'm saying is, for example, at one instance you have positive current of 10A from one winding and a negative current of 5A "from" the other (i.e. -5A with respect to the node). The line current would be 5A. So it's pretty obvious that 5A of 10A incoming current is the same current as the outgoing 5A. Now if by chance at that same instance there is 5A (or more) across the third winding in the same direction, you'd have 5A of circulating current (at that instance).
I know for a fact that delta primary line currents are not always equal.
