Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of transformers, and in particular to an energy-saving and environment-friendly dry-type transformer. Background Art

[0002] A dry-type transformer is an electrical device that does not require insulating oil. It uses air or other non-liquid cooling media for heat dissipation and insulation, and usually uses solid insulating materials such as resin casting or epoxy resin. Compared with oil-immersed transformers, dry-type transformers have higher safety and lower maintenance costs, and are suitable for places with high requirements for fire protection and environmental protection, such as commercial buildings, hospitals and data centers.

[0003] The hardware structure of the dry-type transformer mainly includes the following key parts: The iron core is usually made of stacked silicon steel sheets to provide a magnetic circuit and reduce eddy current losses. The winding is the energy conversion part of the transformer, which is wound by wire (usually copper or aluminum) and is divided into primary winding and secondary winding. The primary winding is connected to the power supply, while the secondary winding is connected to the load. The insulation system of the dry-type transformer is one of the important features that distinguishes it from the oil-immersed transformer. The insulating material is usually in solid form, such as epoxy resin casting, glass fiber reinforced plastic (FRP), polyester film, etc. These materials can not only provide good electrical insulation, but also play a certain mechanical protection role and help dissipate heat.

[0004] The cooling method of dry-type transformers mainly relies on air circulation. The existing forced air cooling adopts the method of arranging a fan at the bottom of the transformer so that air flows through the gap formed by the coil to dissipate heat.

[0005] However, the airflow flowing to the top in this way is often at a higher temperature, which affects the heat dissipation effect of the top, making the top coil prone to damage due to long-term operation in a high-temperature environment. Summary of the invention
