DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0016] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the present invention more clearly understood, the present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention and are not used to limit the present invention.

[0017] Explanation of terms involved in the embodiments of the present invention: The forced oil circulation water-cooled transformer is a water-cooled transformer. There is no radiator on the oil tank, but an oil / water heat exchange system and a water / gas heat exchange system are installed outside the transformer. For water-cooled transformers, there is no radiator on the oil tank. The oil / water heat exchange system includes an oil pump, an oil filter, an oil flow meter, and a water cooler. Cooling water flows through the water cooler and the hot oil of the transformer flows outside. The cooling water takes away the heat of the oil and cools the hot oil. The upper hot oil of the transformer is pumped out by the oil pump, cooled by the water cooler, and flows back to the transformer from the bottom of the oil tank to cool the iron core and winding of the transformer. The temperature of the oil rises after being heated, and the hot oil flows to the top of the transformer again and is pumped out. The oil / water heat exchange system includes a water pump, a water flow meter, a fan, and a water replenishment device. After the cooling water absorbs the heat from the transformer hot oil, the water temperature rises, and the circulating water pump pressurizes the cooling water and sends it to the ground layer. The fan cools the cooling water loop, and after cooling, it returns to the underground layer to participate in the heat exchange with the transformer hot oil.
