Monitoring
The device calculates the ultimate top-oil rise over ambient temperature, ΔΘ
TO,U
,
according to the following expression.
Equation 5.3
For any EXPn (oil exponent) value and any load value, the device calculates the
thermal top-oil time constant according to the following expression.
Equation 5.4
Calculating Hot-Spot Temperature
The device calculates the winding hot-spot temperature, according to the
following expression.
Equation 5.5
The device calculates winding hot-spot rise over top-oil temperature, ΔΘ
H
,
according to the following.
Equation 5.6
where:
RATL = ratio of load loss at rated load to no-load loss (set from
Table 5.14)
EXPn = oil exponent (set from Table 5.14)
TH
or
= top-oil rise over ambient temperature at rated load, °C
(set from Table 5.14)
K = load expressed in per unit of transformer nameplate rating
according to the cooling system in service (phase current
divided by the nominal current)
where:
OTR = thermal time constant in hours at rated load with initial top-oil
temperature equal to ambient temperature (set from Table 5.14)
