Description
An air-cooled transformer is an electrical device used to transfer electrical energy between two or more circuits through electromagnetic induction. It is designed to operate at a frequency of 50-60 Hertz (Hz), which is the standard frequency used in most electrical power systems around the world. The transformer uses air as a cooling medium to dissipate heat generated during its operation. The cooling fins and fans in the transformer help in maintaining a stable operating temperature and ensure efficient performance. Air-cooled transformers are often used in applications where oil-filled transformers are not suitable or where the cooling requirements are lower. They are commonly found in various industrial and commercial settings, providing reliable and efficient power distribution for a wide range of electrical equipment and systems.
