  • Abstract
    Insulation of transformer has been an integral part of condition assessment for many years. The insulating oil playing the role of dielectric barrier as well as heat escape route especially in power transformer. Primary drawback of mineral oil is that it can present an unacceptable fire risk when it was located near to domestic hats. With silicone fluids, we can meet code requirements for fire protection. We use this reliable and effective insulation for liquid-filled design even when transformer must be located very close to load or near buildings. This dissertation aims in finding the better characteristic performance of insulating fluid for optimized function of power transformers. The effect of characteristic properties of insulation fluid with nano additives was analyzed. The nanofluid model which reduces the potential stress of fluid is shown with comsol software.
