?? Key topics covered include:
? ?????????????????????? ?????????????? ??????????: The lesson introduces the mathematical model that describes how heat affects transformer performance. This model is essential for predicting transformer behavior under various loads and temperatures.
? ???????????????????? ?????? ????????????????: Temperature management is crucial for transformer insulation and longevity. This section examines factors that cause insulation degradation, such as temperature, time, humidity, and oxygen levels. Attendees will learn how these factors impact mechanical and dielectric strength, which are central to transformer reliability?and expected life.
? ???????? ???????????????? ????????????????????: The course explains conduction, convection, and radiation in the context of transformers. Understanding these mechanisms is essential for assessing and improving cooling systems and overall transformer efficiency.
? ?????????????????????? ???????????? ?????? ?????????????? ??????????????: The lesson reviews acceptable temperature ranges and highlights the design and function of different cooling systems. Participants will learn about the significance of the “hotspot” temperature, which directly affects a transformer’s life expectancy.
? ?????????????? ???????????????????? ?????? ???????? ????????????????????: Engineers will gain insights into optimal transformer loading under various conditions, including adjustments based on ambient temperature and altitude. The lesson also covers the Heat Run Test, which assesses the main temperatures in a transformer under full load and provides essential data for load and temperature modeling.
This lesson is perfect for engineers looking to deepen their understanding of transformer management and preventive maintenance, and it serves as an excellent lead-in to advanced diagnostics and operational strategies in transformer engineering.
