Abstract
Dry-type transformer had the advantages of simple structure, easy maintenance, small environmental pollution, safe and reliable operation. It was widely used in power system distribution network. With the increase of urban power load year by year, large capacity dry type transformer had been highly concerned by the power industry. In this paper, the fluid-solid coupling calculation equation of a large capacity epoxy casting dry-type transformer was expounded, and a two-dimensional axisymmetric model of the transformer was established. The finite element method was used to calculate the temperature distribution and hot spot temperature with different wind speed and load rate. The results showed that when the wind speed at the transformer inlet was 0.7m/s and the load exceeded 120%, the temperature rise of the low-voltage winding reached 136.41°C, which had exceeded the temperature limit of the material. Therefore, the ventilation volume needed to be increased and the running time needed to be reduced. The research results could provide technical support for the design and safe operation of large capacity epoxy casting dry type transformer.
