6 Claims. (Cl. 62-115) This invention relates to cooling systems and more particularly to improvements in cooling systems for encased liquid insulated stationary electromagnetic induction apparatus.
Typical examples of such apparatus are power transformers and not infrequently such power transformers must be placed in locations where space is at a premium. Examples of such locations are locomotives and congested industrial load center areas. It is customary to cool such transformers by means of a radiator or radiators mounted outside the tank and through which the dielectric liquid circulates. In this manner the dielectric liquid also acts as a coolin medium. Obviously, the size of the power transformer can be reduced by reducing the area of the radiator or heat exchanger, but if this is done, the tennperature' of the cooling liquid must increase in order to dissipate the same amount of heat which is generated in the transformer. Unfortunately, the most satisfactorily known dielectric liquids, such as mineral oils and askarels, do not have a high stable temperature so that heretofore there has been a definite limit on the minimum size of the cooling radiator.
In accordance with this invention a second liquid is employed for performing the refrigerating function so that the dielectric liquid will perform essentially only its prime function of acting as an insulator. By making the refrigerating liquid one which is stable at relatively high temperatures and which has a lower boiling point than the dielectric liquid it is possible by means of mechanical refrigeration cycle to operate the radiator at greatly increased temperature rises above that of the ambient, which normally is air, and in this manner the same amount of heat can be dissipated in a much smaller radiator. It will be noted, however, that this high temperature is outside the transformer tank and therefore does not reduce the life of the transformer.
Another feature of the invention is that the refrigerating liquid is preferably introduced directly into the dielectric liquid in what may be characterized as a spray. This produces turbulence in the dielectric liquid which not only facilitates the cooling of the dielectric liquid but at the same time prevents it from congealing or even freezing solid. This is important, for if the viscosity of the dielectric liquid increases materially, its circulation. decreases so that heat will not be drawn away from the heat evolving electrical apparatus as rapidly as necessary and injurious hot spot temperatures will result.
An object of the invention is to provide a new and improved cooling system.
Another object of the invention is to provide a new and improved cooling system for liquid insulated encased electrical apparatus.
A further object of the invention is to reduce materially the size of the external cooling area of a power transformer.
The invention will be better understood from the following description taken in connection with the accompanying drawing and its scope will be pointed out in the appended claims.
In the drawing Fig. l is a front elevation of a power transformer embodying the invention and Pig. 2 is an enlarged cut -away side elevation of the transformer shown in Fig. 1.
Referring now to the drawing and more particularly to Fig. 1, there is shown therein a power transformer having a tank l and having an exterior cooling unit 2. The cooihig unit 2 consists principally of a radiator or heat exchanger 3 and a housing t for auxiliary apparatus. it will he noted that the size of the radiator 3 in comparison with the size of the l is very much smaller thanin conventional transformers.
Referring now to Fig, 2, the tank l contains the core 5 and the coils 8 of a transformer. i'hese parts are completely immersed in any suitable dielectric liquid l which part ally fills the tank up to the level 13. Examples of suitable dielectric liquids are mineral oil and aslsarel.
Mixed with the dielectric liquid 2' is a refrigerating liquid, of any suitable type, such as dichlcromonofluoromethane (Cli f/1215 which has a lower boiling point than that of the dielectric liquid l and which boiling point is, in fact, lower than the normal operating temperature of the dielectrio liquid i so that the refrigerating liquid vaporizes into vapor hubhles within the dielectric liquid 1 and which bubbles rise to the top of the dielectric liquid. This refrigerating liquid is also stable at very much higher temperatures than the dielectric liquid so that its vapor can be compressed to relatively high pressures and term peratures and then recondensed into a liquid without changing its chemical properties. The vaporization of the refrigerating liquid, of course, isothermally removes heat from the dielectric liquid 1.
Heat is removed from the vaporized refrigerating liquid by drawing it out of the space above the dielectric liquid level 8 through a conduit 10 by means of a compressor I I. This compressor may be driven in any suitable manner, such as by an electric motor H. The compressor raises the pressure and consequently the temperature of the refrigerant gas to relatively high values;
for example, the temperature can be raised to 200 degrees Centigrade above the temperature of the surrounding air. This high temperature gas is then discharged through a conduit l3 into the radiator 3. Preferably, motor-driven fans M are provided for forcing air through the radiator 3 so as to increase" the'heat dissipating capacity of the radiator. By reason of the high temperature of the refrigerant gas which enters the radiator 3 a relatively large amount of heat can be dissipated by a radiator of relatively small size for it is well known that the amount of heat exchanged in a radiator is a function of the temperature rise of the fluid to be cooled over the ambient temperature. The refrigerant is isothermally condensed at high temperature into a liquid in the radiator 3 and it then fiows under pressure through a conduit it into the tank I near the bottom where it emerges through nozzles I 8' in the form of the sprays indicated schematically at H. An expansion device which, for example, may be in the form of a regulating valve I5 controls this flow.
The temperature of the vaporizing liquid sprays I! is very much lower than the temperature of the dielectric liquid 1 but the sprays cause turbulence in the dielectric liquid 'l and thus not only increase the effective contact area between the two liquids and thus increase the heat exchange between them and the vaporization of the refri erating liquid but this turbulence also effectively prevents congealing or freezing of the dielectric liquid.
For preventing the gas bubbles 9 from coming in contact with the transformer core and coils suitable barriers or bailles I8 are provided and, as shown, these have openings i9 near the bottom and they do not extend to the top of the dielectric liquid, with the result that there is a circulatory motion of the dielectric liquid, as shown by the arrows. Thus, the cooled dielectric liquid between the barriers and the walls of the tank 9 increases in density and descends, thus displacing I the warmer dielectric liquid at the bottom which flows through the openings l9 between the barrier and upward between the barrier and core and coils, and this circulation further improves the heat conduction away from the core and coils.
The system may be automatically controlled in any suitable manner, such as by means of a thermal relay 20 having a temperature responsive control bulb 2| which is immersed in the top dielectric liquid. The thermal relay can be set to start the compressor motor l2 and the motors for the fans I4 whenever the temperature of the dielectric liquid reaches a predetermined maxi mum value and this relay will then shut oil. these units when the temperature is reduced sufliciently below this value.
While there has been shown and described a particular embodiment of this invention, it will be obvious to those skilled in the art that various changes and modifications can be made therein without departing from the invention and, therefore, it is aimedin the appended claims to cover all such changes and modifications as fall within the true spirit and scope of the invention.
