Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of cooling equipment, in particular to an intelligent cooling device for a transformer. Background Art
[0002] Transformers are a type of electrical equipment widely used in power systems, industrial production, and household electricity, and are an indispensable part of modern electrical equipment. Large transformers in high-voltage substations generate a lot of heat during use, especially in summer when the ambient temperature is high. However, in order to ensure the lives of citizens and the production of enterprises, most of the main transformers in substations are fully loaded, which causes the transformer to overheat. If the temperature exceeds the specified limit, the transformer will start the protection program and automatically trip, affecting the normal operation of the power system. Therefore, the stable operation of the transformer is related to the stability of the entire power grid.
[0003] The transformer temperature is too high and the heat dissipation is not timely, so the transformer needs to be cooled down. The traditional cooling measures for the transformer are to cut off the power supply to reduce the load, or to blow air or flush the transformer to cool it down. However, they all require manual operation, and it is impossible to achieve uniform cooling. In addition, the work intensity is high, which is not suitable for long-term use and large-scale promotion. There is also a great risk of electric shock when flushing the live transformer with water, and the safety risk is high. Therefore, the existing technology mostly uses high-pressure fine water mist to cool the transformer. For example, the Chinese utility model patent with the authorization announcement of CN221079775U discloses a high-pressure fine water mist cooling device for transformers. The patent achieves the effect of cooling the transformer by using high-pressure fine water mist technology. However, there are the following shortcomings: the water quality of the water mist sprayed on the transformer is too hard, and the water mist is sprayed on the heat sink of the transformer radiator under high temperature, which is easy to produce scale on the heat sink, affecting the normal operation of the transformer radiator, and it is also easy to cause the spray nozzle to be blocked; and the arrangement of the nozzle faces the transformer body, which has a safety hazard, and does not use water vapor to escape, which affects the cooling effect of the transformer. Summary of the invention
[0004] The utility model provides an intelligent transformer cooling device to solve the problems that scaling is easy to form on the heat sink of the transformer radiator, the spray nozzle is easy to be blocked, and the water vapor is not effectively dissipated during the cooling process of the transformer by the existing cooling equipment. The utility model can effectively avoid scaling of the heat sink of the transformer radiator and blockage of the spray nozzle; at the same time, it is also beneficial for the water vapor after absorbing heat to dissipate, thereby improving the cooling effect of the transformer.
[0005] To achieve the above object, the technical solution of the present utility model is: an intelligent transformer cooling device, including a transformer radiator, further including a cooling host and a spraying mechanism arranged around the transformer radiator. The cooling host includes an intelligent control cabinet, a softened water device, a filter, a water tank and a water supply component. The softened water device, the filter and the water tank are sequentially connected and communicated through pipelines, and the water supply component is connected and communicated with the water tank. The intelligent control cabinet can control the start and stop of the cooling host by collecting the oil temperature signal of the transformer, realizing precise and intelligent control. The softened water device softens the water sprayed onto the transformer radiator to avoid scale formation on the radiator fins of the transformer radiator and prevent blockage of the spray nozzles. The filter filters the water flowing into the water tank, and the softened and filtered water can be led to the spraying mechanism through the water supply component.
[0006] The spraying mechanism includes a bracket, a high-pressure pipeline and a spraying component. The high-pressure pipeline is connected and communicated with the water supply component. A plurality of the spraying components are arranged at intervals on the bracket. The spraying component includes a spraying pipeline and a plurality of spray nozzles arranged at intervals on the spraying pipeline. The spraying pipeline is connected and communicated with the high-pressure pipeline. The spraying components of the two relatively arranged spraying mechanisms are arranged in a staggered manner. The water supply component leads water to the spraying pipeline through the high-pressure pipeline, so that the spray nozzles spray fine water mist onto the transformer radiator, achieving the effect of cooling the transformer radiator.
[0007] Further, the water supply component includes a water outlet pipeline, a constant-pressure water supply device and a water delivery pipeline. One end of the water outlet pipeline is connected and communicated with the water tank, and a valve is arranged on the water outlet pipeline. The valve plays a role in opening and closing the water outlet pipeline.
[0008] Further, the inlet end and the outlet end of the constant-pressure water supply device are respectively connected and communicated with the water outlet pipeline and the water delivery pipeline. A high-pressure pump group and a pressure regulating overflow valve are arranged on the water delivery pipeline. The constant-pressure water supply device supplies water to the water delivery pipeline at a constant pressure. The high-pressure pump group is used to pressurize the water to the working pressure, and the pressure regulating overflow valve can adjust the working pressure of the high-pressure pump group.
[0009] Further, a water distribution branch pipe is connected to one end of the high-pressure pipeline. The water distribution branch pipe is connected and communicated with the water delivery pipeline. A partition control valve and a pressure transmitter are arranged on the water distribution branch pipe. The water can be led to the spraying pipeline in sequence through the water delivery pipeline, the water distribution branch pipe and the high-pressure pipeline. The partition control valve plays a role in controlling the opening and closing of the water distribution branch pipe. The pressure transmitter is used to detect the pressure of the water flowing from the water distribution branch pipe to the high-pressure pipeline and output a signal to be transmitted to the intelligent control cabinet.
[0010] Further, a plurality of pipe clamps are arranged at intervals on the bracket. The spraying pipeline is fixed to the bracket through the pipe clamps. The spraying pipeline can be fixed to the bracket through the pipe clamps.
[0011] Furthermore, the spray nozzle corresponds to the gap between the heat dissipation fins of the transformer radiator. The spray nozzle sprays fine water mist into the gap between the heat dissipation fins of the transformer radiator to facilitate the outward diffusion of the water vapor after heat absorption.
[0012] Through the above technical solution, the beneficial effects of the present utility model are as follows:
[0013] The structure of the present utility model is reasonable and has good use effects. By softening the water before spraying fine water mist on the transformer radiator, scale formation on the heat dissipation fins of the transformer radiator can be avoided, and at the same time, the phenomenon of blockage of the spray nozzle can be avoided; at the same time, through the direction of the fine water mist sprayed by the spray nozzle towards the transformer radiator, the cooling effect on the transformer radiator is better, and it is more conducive to dissipating the water vapor after heat absorption.
[0014] In the present utility model, after the water is first passed through the water softening device for softening by the water softening device, and then the softened water is passed into the water tank, the calcium and magnesium ions in the water can be prevented from scaling on the heat dissipation fins of the transformer radiator, ensuring the normal operation of the transformer radiator. At the same time, the phenomenon of blockage of the spray nozzle can also be avoided, preventing the influence on the effect of the fine water mist sprayed by the spray nozzle; at the same time, the softened water is filtered by the filter, further avoiding scale formation on the heat dissipation fins of the transformer radiator and avoiding blockage of the spray nozzle.
[0015] The spray components of the two opposite spray mechanisms of the present utility model are installed in a staggered manner, that is, the spray nozzles of the opposite spray mechanisms spray fine water mist in a staggered manner, and at the same time, the spray nozzles spray fine water mist into the gap between the heat dissipation fins of the transformer radiator, achieving the effect of facilitating the outward diffusion of the water vapor after heat absorption, improving the cooling effect on the transformer radiator, and thus improving the cooling effect on the transformer.
