Abstract

The main components of the transformer face overheating and insulation aging caused by electromagnetic losses, which affect their service life. This paper analyzes an oil-immersed transformer with a rated voltage of 800kV based on heat transfer and fluid dynamics principles. The temperature distribution is carried out by magnetic-thermal coupling simulation. The influence of insulation oil flow rate on temperature is analyzed in the thermal field calculation, and the overall temperature rise of transformer and insulating oil is obtained. It turned out that the highest hot spot of the transformer occurs in the low-voltage winding, and the flow speed of insulation oil between the winding is the fastest.
