Limitations
This paper deals only with the temperature rise of the coils of dry-type transformers.
Only the steady state of the coils is
considered. This is the temperature at
which they stay at unchanged load, voltage, and ambient temperature. Transient phenomena, like temperature rise
due to short circuits, are not discussed;
neither is forced air cooling. Air is mentioned as coolant throughout the text.
The results are applicable to other gases
by changing the constants accordingly.
High- and low-voltage (and tertiary,
if any) parts of a coil are considered as
separate units, because different amounts
of heat are generated in those parts perPaper 58-155, recommended by the AIEE'Transformers Committee and approved by the AI EE

unit volume of copper and per-unit heattransfer area. Experience has shown that
the high- and low-voltage parts of a coil
frequently have quite different temperatures.
Proposed Procedure
In sumnmary, this paper proposes calculating the temperature rise by the following method:
1. Calculating the total watts WI which
can be dissipated at a series of coil temperatures T, where T= Tamb+ Trie, and
drawing a curve
WI=f(T)
(1)
in Cartesian co-ordinates.
2. Calculating the total watts W2 generated
in the coil at the same series of temperatures
T, and drawing another curve
W2 =f2( T)

Radiation
Only a negligible error is introduced if
the temperature of the enclosure is considered to be equal to that of the coolant
in equation 1, in cases where the enclosure
forms the opposite surface to radiation in
a conventional dry transformer.

Heat Dissipation
Heat is transferred by radiation, convection, and conduction. Radiation follows the Stefan-Boltzmann law in a somewhat modified form

Convection
While the Stefan-Boltzmann constant
S is a purely dimensional constant, the
heat-convection coefficient h in equation
4 is a function of the geometry of the particular device and of the properties and
condition of the cooling air. A film of
air is heated by conduction from the vertical surface of the dry transformer coil
and begins to rise as it becomes lighter
than its surroundings. Thus a flow of
the air is started.

The value of the (NGX NP) product
determines the nature of the air flow,
turbulent or laminar. In the usual temperature range and at atmospheric pressure the air flow is laminar, along naturally cooled dry transformer coils. A
simplified equation is derived from equation 11 and given for h in this range in
textbooks,3 which may be written4 with a
dimension, watts/sq in, as follows

The outer surface of a coil has cylindrical symmetry. Fringe effects can
be neglected, therefore the surface can be
reduced to a circular circumference of a
section across the axis, and the solid
angles to plane angles 0,,; see Fig. 3.

Discussion
N. A. Hills (Moloney Electric Company of
Canada, Ltd., Toronto, Ont., Canada): In
dry-type transformer temperature-rise
calculations, designers are interested in
obtaining rises that are close to the temperature class limits. With this in mind
I would think the process as outlined in
this paper could be simplified by establishing the watts loss at the temperature
limit for the class and obtain the temperature rise by reference to Fig. 1,
rather than by a graphical plot as in Fig. 5.
If the rise is close to the desired limit, as it
should be, the error introduced would be
quite small.
This approach in effect establishes relationships between surface watts/sq in and
temperature rises for different duct lengths
and with duct-size corrections that could be
listed in a relatively short table. This form
for the information would be easy to incorporate into a computer design program.
I would appreciate the author's comments
