Definitions

  • the invention relates to a static electric induction system, such as a transformer system, which is normally cooled by a fluid.
  • Known static electric inductions systems such as core-type transformers, consist of a tank that contains an active part consisting of a core with a number of current-carrying windings wound around them.
  • the electrical windings or coils are arranged in between electrically insulating cylinders.
  • the electrical windings may be embedded or shaped as discs, which are arranged on top of one another.
  • the electric windings may also be helically shaped.
  • a cooling fluid such as for example oil or ester based liquids. The heat decreases life expectancy of the transformer system and it is therefore generally required to cool transformer systems by using an efficient and robust cooling system.
  • the discs are usually spaced apart in the vertical direction by spacers to form horizontal fluid ducts for the cooling liquid in between two discs or in between two turns of the helical winding.
  • Vertical fluid ducts are usually formed in between the outer cylinder and the stacked discs and in between the inner cylinder and the stacked discs. In most cases the vertical fluid ducts are limited or defined in a horizontal or circumferential direction by spacer ribs, which are used to hold the insulating cylinders in position.
  • the cooling system of known transformers may comprise a plurality of fluid guides or flow control members that force the liquid to flow in certain directions, in order to enhance the efficiency of the transformer cooling system.
  • the fluid guides are normally arranged in between two neighbouring spacer ribs next to the inner and/or the outer cylinder so that the fluid, which is flowing upwards in the vertical fluid ducts is forced to flow into the horizontal fluid ducts located below the fluid guides in a zigzag flow pattern.
  • the fluid guides are arranged in a symmetrical pattern along the circumference of the housing next to an inside periphery and next to an outside periphery of the stacked discs.
  • Symmetrical means that the fluid guides are arranged in a repeating or periodical pattern on the inside periphery and on the outside periphery of the stacked discs, with minor deviations related to manufacturing considerations.
  • US 4'245'206 A discloses a transformer comprising an outer insulation cylinder and an inner insulation cylinder with coil units arranged in between the outer and inner cylinders.
  • Horizontal and vertical spacer members are used to position the coil units between the outer and inner cylinder and to arrange the coil units distant from one another to form horizontal and vertical passages for the cooling liquid.
  • Flow control members are arranged in between the vertical spacer members in order to guide and control the fluid flow by reducing the cross sections of the vertical ducts.
  • the flow control members are arranged circumferentially and vertically symmetrical and periodically with a constant pitch over the entire height of the transformer.
  • the flow control members arranged in a sectional area are always arranged symmetrical and in some cases shifted in a vertical direction, as illustrated in figure 17 of US 4'245'206 A. Due to the symmetrical arrangement of flow control members, hot spots can occur, especially in a circumferential direction of the coil units 16, and the peak temperature region cannot be effectively cooled.
  • JP S57 148322 discloses how a vertical first flow bending section and a vertical second flow bending section, adjacent to the first flow bending section along the circumference, are arranged along a coil of a transformer in order to equalize the temperature within the transformer.
  • the aim is to cool a part of a coil locally heated to high temperature in the first flow bending section via the cooling liquid flowing in the second flow bending section by alternately placing the fluid guide members in each section.
  • JP H05 275246 relates to how to reduce pressure loss when refrigerant flows and to improve heat conduction effect in a circumferential direction of an electromagnetic induction disc winding by making cooling of a unit coil constituting the winding uniform.
  • JP H07 263248 relates to how to enhance the cooling efficiency while keeping insulation between the coils and to make uniform the temperature distribution by increasing the interval for disposing a flow deflecting member on the gas flow-in side of inner and outer vertical gas channel.
  • the actual position and magnitude of the hotspot temperature depends on the actual distribution of the oil flow guides. An important design goal is to keep the maximal hotspot temperature as low as possible.
  • the static electric induction system may be a power transformer or a reactor.
  • Another object of the present invention is to provide a static electric induction system that works continuous and steady even under high load.
  • a static electric induction system comprising a liquid dielectric cooling fluid, an outer shell and an inner shell, a coil assembly comprising a plurality of coil units, stacked on top of one another and positioned in between the outer and inner shells, and a plurality of coil unit spacers configured to form a plurality of intermediate fluid ducts in between the coil units.
  • the static electric induction system further comprises a first and an adjacent second sector, each of the first and second sector comprising a fluid guide arrangement having a plurality of fluid guides, whereby the vertical distance, as counted in coil units, between one pair of two subsequent fluid guides of a sector differs from a vertical distance, as counted in coil units, between another pair of two subsequent fluid guides of the same sector and whereby the first fluid guide arrangement of the first sector differs from the second fluid guide arrangement of the second sector.
  • the fluid guide arrangement of the first sector may differ from the fluid guide arrangement of the second sector not only in that it is vertically shifted.
  • the static electrical induction system further may comprise a plurality of vertical inner and outer coil unit spacer ribs uniformly arranged around an inner periphery and around an outer periphery of the coil assembly, whereby respective two neighbouring vertical inner coil unit spacer ribs and two corresponding neighbouring vertical outer coil unit spacer ribs confine a first sector of the coil unit assembly.
  • the outer shell and the inner shell may form part of a housing that is configured to receive the coil assembly comprising the coil units and other potential electrical components.
  • the build up of the first and second fluid guide arrangements of the above described static electric induction system ensures that the magnitude of hot spots is reduced through heat transfer in the coil units and in the cooling fluid or conduction in the circumferential direction of the coil units.
  • the static electric induction system according to the invention is capable to even out hot spots especially in the circumferential direction of the coil units around which hot spots normally spread, even unexpected hot spots. Even in case a hot spot occurs during unusual loading conditions or overloading, it is possible to even out or dissipate the heat energy from that hot spot by using a configuration as described above.
  • thermohydrodynamic network modelling methods may be used to conduct the thermal analysis.
  • Direct temperature measuring methods using fibre optic sensors may also be used to analyse temperature distribution in the static electric induction system. According to such a thermal analysis the fluid guides may be distributed within the static electrical induction system.
  • first and second fluid guide arrangements comprise inner fluid guides arranged next to the inner shell and outer fluid guides arranged next to the outer shell.
  • the fluid guides may ensure that the cooling fluid flow is changed from a vertical flow direction to a horizontal flow direction and back so that cooling fluid may enter the intermediate ducts.
  • the vertical distance, as counted in coil units, between one pair of two subsequent inner or outer fluid guides of a sector differs from a vertical distance, as counted in coil units, between another pair of two subsequent inner or outer fluid guides of the same sector.
  • the vertical distance between two subsequent outer fluid guides may vary and the vertical distance between two subsequent inner fluid guides may vary as seen over the height of the coil assembly.
  • the inner and outer fluid guides are arranged in a non-periodical manner across at least two sectors.
  • the inner fluid guides are basically arranged on a surface defined by the inner periphery of the coil units or the coil assembly and the outer fluid guides are arranged on a surface defined by the outer periphery of the coil units or coil assembly. These surfaces are divided into sectors and when at least two sectors are analysed next to one another, the fluid guides are not periodically distributed.
  • the static electric induction system comprises inner vertical fluid ducts and outer vertical fluid ducts.
  • the vertical fluid ducts are configured to provide a vertical passage for the cooling fluid.
  • the inner and outer fluid guides are configured to more or less completely block a vertical cooling fluid flow in the inner and outer vertical fluid ducts, respectively.
  • Such a blockage ensures that a comparatively large amount of cooling fluid is directed into the intermediate fluid ducts so that the coil units are cooled effectively along their horizontal surfaces.
  • the first fluid guide arrangement of the first sector is not congruent with the second fluid guide arrangement of the second sector.
  • Such a design enhances the cooling of the coil units in a horizontal direction and further reduces the spreading of hot spots along the horizontal or circumferential direction of the coil units.
  • a coil unit comprising a hot spot in the first sector is thus cooled more efficiently in an adjacent, second sector.
  • the cooling fluid follows a fluid flow pattern, which is generated by the different fluid guide arrangements, whereby the different fluid guide arrangements result in different fluid flow patterns.
  • the fluid flow patterns are used to cool the coil units and they may further indicate the different flow velocities of the cooling fluid within the static electric induction system.
  • the static electric induction system may comprise inner and outer coil unit spacer ribs, whereby the coil unit spacers are arranged in between the inner and outer coil unit spacer ribs.
  • the vertical inner and outer coil unit spacer ribs may be configured to receive coil unit spacers at any height and the coil unit spacers may be suitably connected to the inner and outer coil unit spacer ribs.
  • the static electrical induction system may comprise a third sector adjacent the second sector, wherein the third sector comprises a third fluid guide arrangement that is different from the first and second fluid guide arrangements of the first and second sector.
  • fluid flow pattern of the first, second and third sector may be different from one another.
  • a density of inner and outer fluid guides is higher in a top region of the coil assembly than in a bottom region of the coil assembly. Towards the top region there may be more fluid guides positioned than towards the bottom region.
  • the amount of intermediate fluid ducts in between two subsequent inner or outer fluid guides highly affects the cooling fluid flow in the intermediate fluid ducts.
  • the fluid flow in the intermediate fluid ducts increases by about 50% when the distance is reduced from six coil units to four coil units.
  • the placement of the fluid guides is a very effective to cool the static electric induction system.
  • the static electric induction system or transformer may be driven by natural convection.
  • the static electric induction system may comprise a pump drive configured to drive the cooling fluid in the static electric induction system or transformer.
  • the amount of inner and outer fluid guides in a fluid guide arrangement differs from the amount of inner and outer fluid guides in another fluid guide arrangement.
  • fluid guides do not have to be necessarily the same in the first, second or third sector. They may vary in each sector, given that the cooling is optimized by using less or more oil guides in one sector than in an adjacent sector.
  • the herein described further concerns a method of arranging fluid guides in a static electric induction system comprising the steps of:
  • Such a method has the advantage, that the static electric induction system can be configured and equipped depending on material and construction characteristics of the specific transformer.
  • the static electric induction system may in the end, after the thermal analysis, even comprise less fluid guides than a known transformer system comprising a symmetrical arrangement of fluid guides, since the thermal analysis may reveal that not that many fluid guides are necessary to efficiently cool the transformer.
  • Typical fluid guide arrangement patterns may comprise configurations where robustness versus lower maximum hot spots was taken into account or where different cooling modes (pump operating and not operating) has been taken into account.
  • fluid guide arrangement configurations may be chosen depending on different typical load cases of the transformer, different external conditions (desert, arctic conditions, weather and temperature) or different conditions of the transformer, such as for example during start-up phase or during steady-state phase. It may also be possible to invert the fluid guide patterns, such as arranging the outer fluid guides according to the inner pattern and the inner fluid guides according to the outer pattern.
  • the coil assembly 6 comprises a number of, in the present case six, coil units 16, which are disc-shaped and arranged on top of one another, spaced apart by coil unit spacers 20.
  • the coil unit spacers 20 are arranged in between two consecutive coil units 16.
  • the coil unit spacers 20 may be shaped as flat disc segments as shown in figure 1 .
  • coil units 16 define a horizontal intermediate fluid duct 32, which extends through the coil assembly 6 from an outer side or periphery 38 of the coil units 16 and coil assembly 6, respectively, to an inner side or periphery 40 of the coil units 16 and coil assembly 6, respectively.
  • the intermediate fluid ducts 32 are configured to let cooling fluid pass through, preferably dielectric fluid, which is normally a liquid, of a cooling system.
  • the coil assembly 6 further comprises vertical inner and outer coil unit spacer ribs 21 22, which are configured to hold and position inner and outer shells 12, 14 the coil unit spacers 20, the coil assembly 6 and coil units 16, respectively, in position.

  • the fluid guide arrangement A comprises inner and outer flow control members 24', 26'.
  • the inner and outer flow control members 24', 26' are positioned in a symmetrical manner in the fluid ducts 28, 30 and in the fluid guide arrangement A, A' in order to guide fluid into the intermediate fluid ducts 32, as illustrated in figure 1 and 3 .
  • the fluid guide arrangement A, A' and the intermediate fluid ducts 32 result in a fluid flow pattern 10 of the cooling fluid as illustrated in figure 3 (static electric induction system in use).
  • the fluid flow patterns 10 and the fluid guide arrangements A, A' are the same and/or they are congruent with each other.
  • FIG 2 which illustrates fluid guide arrangements A, A' comprising the inner and outer flow control members 24', 26', a first fluid guide arrangement A is vertically and centrally shifted from a second fluid guide arrangement A'.
  • the flow control members 24', 26', in figure 2 exemplary the outer flow control members26' of the first fluid guide arrangement A, are arranged with a constant vertical distance as counted in coil units 16, namely every three coil units 16.
  • the outer flow control members26' of the adjacent second fluid guide arrangement A' are arranged vertically shifted but shifted in that the outer fluid guide 26 of the second fluid guide arrangement A' is arranged centrally in between two subsequent outer flow control members26' of the first fluid guide arrangement A, as seen in a vertical direction.
  • the arrangement of the flow control members26' and thus the fluid guide arrangements A, A' are symmetrical, since the patterns are repeating and since the first and second fluid guide arrangements A, A' are not different form one another but only vertically and centrally shifted.
  • the flow control members 24', 26' shown in the prior art are not configured to substantially block the vertical fluid ducts 28, 30. They are only configured to partially block the vertical fluid ducts 28, 30 and to let a certain amount of cooling fluid pass by without forcing it into the intermediate fluid ducts 32.
  • a hot spot may usually always occur at the same position, whereas when different or non periodical or only partially periodical fluid guide arrangements are installed or used, the hot spots can not occur at the same position and they are therefore reduced or even eliminated.

  • the first and second sectors 2, 2' are defined or limited by a pair of vertical inner - and a pair of corresponding vertical outer spacer ribs 21, 22.

  • each fluid guide arrangement A, B are arranged in order to create a fluid flow pattern 10, 10' that ensures an efficient cooling of the transformer or static electric induction system .
  • An outer and an inner fluid guide 24, 26 may thus not be arranged on the same level or height in a fluid guide arrangement A, B since this would block the fluid flow in the transformer.
  • the inner fluid guides 24 and the outer fluid guides 26 are configured to almost completely or substantially block the vertical fluid ducts 28, 30.
