Abstract

Transformer plays an important role in electrical power system. Ever since the invention of a transformer, we have been facing the trend of increasing its nominal power. Together with the increase of nominal power, losses in transformers increase as well, while a transformer's own capability of cooling decreases. According to generally adopted estimate states that if a transformer's maximum operating temperature is reduced by 6°C, the thermal life of insulation system is approximately doubled. As a part of this, many authors have presented different methodologies to provide an efficient cooling of transformer. The purpose of this paper is to provide a literature review on new technology of cooling system of transformer and its effect on transformer's life.
