Aiming at the low noise design of large power transformer
a prediction method of transformer noise is proposed to reduce the noise through improving the structure of the transformer. The surface vibration response of transformer oil tank structure is obtained by establishing a finite element model of transformer for vibration analysis. Based on the indirect boundary element method
an acoustic numerical analysis model of transformer is established by using LMS acoustic analysis software
the surface vibration response of transformer oil tank is imported into the acoustic model as boundary condition
and the radiated noise of transformer is solved by using the acoustic analysis software
so that the transformer noise prediction is realized. The proposed method is adopted to quantitatively predict the field noise of a transformer
and the predicted noise is compared with the measured one in same condition to verify the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed noise prediction method. In addition
the noise reduction effects of several improved transformer structures are predicted quantitatively with the proposed method to provide a basis for low noise design of this type of transformer.
