Temperature Measurements
• Transformers have three temperature measurements
• Top oil temperature
• Winding temperature
• Winding temperature rise rating
![Page 12: Transformer coolingengineering.richmondcc.edu/Courses/EUS 210/Notes/Power_Transform… · Transformer cooling Lesson #4. When The Cooling is Not Functioning 2. Cooling The Life of](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022030416/5aa217d87f8b9a1f6d8cc5cf/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Top Oil Temperature
• Top oil temperature is a direct measurement of the temperature of the oil near the top of the tank where the oil will be the hottest.
• It is an actual measurement made with a gauge.
![Page 13: Transformer coolingengineering.richmondcc.edu/Courses/EUS 210/Notes/Power_Transform… · Transformer cooling Lesson #4. When The Cooling is Not Functioning 2. Cooling The Life of](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022030416/5aa217d87f8b9a1f6d8cc5cf/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Winding Temperature
• Winding temperature is not an actual measurement of winding temperature.
• It is an indirect indication of the hottest spot in the winding based on design calculations.
• Winding temperature is a direct measurement of the temperature of the oil near the top of the tank pulse the additional heat provided by an electric heater.
• The heater is powered by current from the secondary of a Hot Spot current transformer.
• The hot spot CT provides current to the heater based on transformer load.
![Page 14: Transformer coolingengineering.richmondcc.edu/Courses/EUS 210/Notes/Power_Transform… · Transformer cooling Lesson #4. When The Cooling is Not Functioning 2. Cooling The Life of](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022030416/5aa217d87f8b9a1f6d8cc5cf/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Winding Temperature
• CT secondary windings are always rated 5 amps with the exception of the HOT SPOT CT.
• The hot spot CT will usually have an odd ratio chosen by the designer to supply the right amount of power to the heater to simulate the calculated hottest spot in the winding.
• Transformers usually have only one winding thermometer but large multi-winding transformers may have several.

Winding Temperature
• Newer transformers with electronic temperature gauges may not use a bulb in the oil at all for winding temperature.
• Winding Temperature calculations can be made using the output from a standard 5 amp CT secondary.
![Page 19: Transformer coolingengineering.richmondcc.edu/Courses/EUS 210/Notes/Power_Transform… · Transformer cooling Lesson #4. When The Cooling is Not Functioning 2. Cooling The Life of](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022030416/5aa217d87f8b9a1f6d8cc5cf/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Temperature Rise
• Temperature rise is a value found on the nameplate related to a specific transformer capacity.
• Temperature rise is the average temperature of the winding.
• It is based on the resistance change of the winding measured before and after a heat run in the factory.
• It is a guarantee by the manufacturer that the transformer can carry a specific load without exceeding the given temperature rise (temperature pulse ambient air temperature).
• The maximum air temperature used as a reference is 40°c (104°f ).

• Air temp. 40°c load 25 MVA gauge reads ≤ 95°c

Thermal Design
• Thermal Design Involves Controlling
• Top Oil Rise
• Average Winding Rise
• Winding Hot Spot Rise Over Ambient
• The Applicable Standards Establish The Temperature Rise Limits
• 60˚C For IEC
• 65˚For ANSI For Top Oil Rise And Average Winding Rise
• Purchaser Can Specify Lower Limits If Desired

Thermal Design
• Methods Of Calculating Are Important
• Top Oil Rise And Average Winding Rise Can Be Measured
• Winding Hot Spot Rise Can Only Be Measured With Sensors Placed In The Winding
• The Vast Majority Of Transformers Are Manufactured Without Hot Spot Sensors, Thus, The Hot Spot Rise Is A Derived Quantity For Most Transformers

Thermal Design
• Hot Spot Temperature Can Be Used To Provide System Operators Guidance In Loading Transformers
• Most Users Do Not Use Data To Dynamically Load Transformers
• Equipment Exists So One Could Do This With The Inclusion Of The Proper Sensors, i.e. Fiber Optic Thermal Sensors
