| Popis: | With the increasing use of dry-type transformers, attention has been focused upon the fact that the difference between the average temperature rise by resistance and the hottest-spot temperature rise is much greater than in liquid-immersed transformers. In this paper there are given the results of an extended series of thermal tests on a variety of dry-type transformer coils. Data are presented in regard to the effect of different heights of coil stacks, different configurations, and, in addition, some essential precautions in making temperature measurements are pointed out. Hot-spot temperatures were investigated in coils cooled by natural draft and by forced-air circulation at different velocities for both directed flow and random flow. Sufficient data are given to determine the ratio between the average temperature rise of the windings and the hottest-spot temperature rise. Based upon this relationship, the need is shown for review and modification of the conventional hot-spot allowances for dry-type transformers. |
