Noise and Vibration Analysis of a Distribution Transformer

摘要

Transformer noise is a significant contribution to unwanted ambient noise, especially in the vicinity of the electrical transmission facility. It is therefore very important to get to know the mechanism of noise generation of the distribution transformer. As outcomes of this work, a finite element based multiphysics model is presented which provides a convenient and efficient toolchain for simulating the transformer sound emission mechanism. Finally, the operation of modelling chain is presented on a 200kVA distribution transformer simulation.
