Investigation of heat transfer in high-capacity power transformers having modifications preventing explosions
Abstract
Results of numerical simulation of complex conjugate heat transfer in a high power electric transformer are presented. Simulation of the flow and heat transfer inside a transformer with static blast protection was carried out. Analysis of test calculations performed in the FlowVision software suit was carried out. Comparison of the performance of created numerical model against the real experimental data from the thermal tests of the transformer was made.
