Transformers play a crucial role in the transmission and distribution of electrical power. However, one common issue that can arise is an increase in transformer noise. This noise can be a nuisance to nearby residents and can also be an indication of a potential problem with the transformer. There are several reasons why transformer noise can increase, including:

Overloading: If a transformer is overloaded, the increased current can cause vibrations in the windings and core, leading to increased noise.

Aging: Over time, transformers can experience wear and tear, leading to increased vibration and noise.

Faulty design or construction: Poor design or construction can lead to resonance or other issues that cause increased noise.

Loose components: Loose bolts, clamps, or other components can cause vibration and noise.

Environmental factors: Extreme temperatures, humidity, or exposure to moisture can cause insulation breakdown or other issues that can increase noise.

To prevent excessive transformer noise, it is important to ensure that transformers are properly designed, installed, and maintained. Regular maintenance and inspections can help identify potential issues before they become problems. In addition, it is important to avoid overloading transformers and to provide adequate cooling and ventilation to prevent overheating.

Transformer noise can increase due to various reasons. One common reason is the vibration of the transformer's core and windings caused by the magnetic forces produced during operation. This vibration can be transmitted to the transformer tank and radiated as noise. Another reason can be the presence of loose parts or components within the transformer. These loose components can vibrate and produce noise. Additionally, if the transformer is exposed to high temperatures or if it has insufficient cooling, it can cause the insulation materials to deteriorate, leading to partial discharges and noise. The level of noise can also increase if the transformer is overloaded or if there is an internal fault. Proper maintenance, including regular inspections and repairs, can help prevent or reduce transformer noise.

The power supply radius of a transformer refers to the distance from the center of the transformer to the farthest point where it can supply stable and reliable power. This distance is determined by the capacity of the transformer, the voltage level, and the impedance of the transmission line. Generally, the power supply radius of a transformer is limited by voltage drop and power loss. If the power supply radius is too large, the voltage drop and power loss will increase, which will affect the voltage stability and economic operation of the power grid. Therefore, when designing and selecting transformers, it is necessary to consider the power supply radius to ensure reliable power supply and efficient operation of the power grid.
