The present disclosure relates to electrical windings for a dry transformer which allows construction of a compact dry transformer even in relatively high voltage classes. For this purpose, the electrical winding has multiple windings of a winding conductor wound to form a coil. The coil has been embedded into a solid insulation body. In some embodiments, a coating of an electrically conductive material, comprising a resin matrix with at least 0.05% by weight of nanoscale filler, has been applied to at least one surface of the insulation body.

A transformer support structure for mounting a transformer assembly includes a bottom element having a support surface with a horizontal orientation including two longitudinal side edges which delimit the support surface. The longitudinal side edges run parallel to each other in a y-direction. A cross bar is supported on the support surface and runs crosswise to the longitudinal side edges. At least two reinforcement units for reinforcing the cross bar extend over an outer front surface of the cross bar in a vertical direction. The reinforcement units are positioned above the longitudinal side edges and are aligned with the longitudinal side edges.

A dry-type transformer core has an iron core with a number of limbs designed to be wrapped with a winding and interconnected by a number of magnetic yokes. The object is to produce a transformer of this type in a simple manner, which is especially well protected against corrosion. For that purpose, the dry-type transformer core includes a casing that is formed onto the iron core. The casing surrounds the iron core in a substantially flush manner.

A dry-type transformer for mobile applications includes a transformer core, at least one radially inner first winding segment, and at least one radially outer, second hollow cylindrical winding segment. The segments are wound around a common winding axis and the transformer core passes therethrough. The segments are nested inside one another and radially spaced apart from one another, such that a hollow cylindrical cooling duct is formed therebetween. Spacing is achieved by spacer elements arranged such that the cooling duct allows a passage of coolant in an axial direction. The spacer elements are formed and arranged along the radial circumference of the cooling duct over the axial length thereof such that the proportionate weight of the horizontal transformer can be borne on at least one contact surface of the at least second winding segment without causing deformation to the cooling duct.

A dry transformer to be mounted on or under or in a vessel or means of transportation, in particular a rail car or power car of a train or a ship, includes at least one core and at least one winding. The winding surrounds the core and the core and the winding are parts of a coil. The coil and/or the core and/or the winding are mechanically connected to an outer support structure by at least one strut. The transformer is able to master the required typical dynamic loads in at least one direction in transportation applications, such as railway applications.

A transformer includes a transformer core having a first core leg having a first longitudinal axis and second core leg having a second longitudinal axis; a first low voltage (LV) winding arranged around the first core leg, a first high voltage (HV) winding arranged around the first LV winding; a second low voltage (LV) winding arranged around the second core leg; and a second high voltage winding arranged around the second LV winding, wherein the first HV winding is provided with a first HV connector and a second HV connector each extending substantially perpendicular away from the first longitudinal axis, and wherein the second HV winding is provided with a third HV connector and a fourth HV connector each extending substantially perpendicular away from the second longitudinal axis.

Dry-type transformers with insulating modules are disclosed. Example insulating modules include dielectric screens and supporting blocks. The supporting blocks support the dielectric screens over windings of the transformer. The dielectric screens have first substantially even portions configured to adapt in spaces defined by corresponding cylindrical barriers arranged between first and second windings of the transformers and second substantially even portions, transversal to the first portions and to the first windings of the transformers and extending outwards from the first portions and beyond the supporting blocks. The dielectric screens partly extend around a winding.

A sealed core-coil assembly in a submersible transformer includes a coil assembly having an inner coil with inner, outer, upper, and lower surfaces, and an outer coil with inner, outer, upper, and lower surfaces, a core assembly including a core window and core column of a magnetically-permeable material, the core column and core window having inner side surfaces, and an expandable sealing member including an inner cavity that is fillable or evacuatable so that a compliant insulation material is positioned in the inner cavity to block passage of water and prevent the formation of a loop of water, which otherwise would act like an electrical short in a submerged transformer.

Non-liquid immersed transformers and methods of measuring aging degree of the transformers' insulation are disclosed. The transformers comprise a solid insulation inside the conductive coil and one or more floating electrodes in the solid insulation. At least a part of the conductive coil and the one or more floating electrodes may form one or more capacitive elements, respectively. An electrical parameter, e.g. complex permittivity, of the capacitive element is measured and the aging degree is calculated as a function of the electrical parameter measurement.

A transformer and a transformer machining process, including two coil units arranged side-by-side, each unit including an inner coil and an outer coil sleeved on the outside of the inner coil, an outer coil semi-conductive layer being wrapped on the outside of the outer coil and an inner coil semi-conductive layer being wrapped on the outside of the inner coil, and an insulating layer being integrally cast with the coil unit. In the transformer provided by the present application, the arrangement of the outer coil semi-conductive layer and the inner coil semi-conductive layer can effectively improve the problem of excessive local field strength caused by an irregular coil structure and solve the issue of wire package cracking caused by steel material generating heat in a pouring body; thus, the transformer has improved safety.
