Optimizing Transformer Thermal Performance: Insights from Experimental and Analytical Study

Abstract

This research investigates the thermal dynamic processes found in transformers, which are the backbone of the network. The design concept makes a radical change to traditional transformer geometry by using a new channel to optimize heat rejection. This design aims to improve the overall performance of this important electric machine. The depth of the analysis is clearly seen in the detailed analysis made to evaluate the indirect one of the integrated cooling channels in the transformer tank. Additionally, the velocity air flow in the ducts and their influence on the dynamic temperature were carefully studied. This study used advanced ANSYS simulation and compared it with experimental work to determine the best solution. This article will help understand the thermodynamic distribution and control strategy of transformers. By proposing avant-garde interventions, the aim is to improve the overall performance and security of critical applications, while at the same time creating a solid foundation for the development of efficient energy conversion. The results of this study go beyond the current topic and provide valuable information that will influence future developments in technology. Where the percentage reduction of hot spot temperature is about 6.4%.
