Abstract: The disclosure relates to a transformer arrangement comprising a transformer which comprises at least one phase winding. The phase winding has coil turns around a coil axis. The transformer arrangement further comprises a transformer tank having walls forming an enclosure in which the transformer is arranged. The enclosure contains an incompressible medium in which the transformer is immersed. A screen is arranged in the transformer tank, between the walls of the transformer tank and the at least one phase winding of the transformer. The screen has an inner, transformer-facing, surface and an outer, wall-facing, surface. The screen is further arranged distanced from the at least one phase winding. The transformer has lateral sides parallel with the coil axis. The screen has at least one lateral part aligned with the lateral sides of the transformer, and wherein the at least one lateral part of the screen circumscribes the transformer.

Abstract: A transformer comprising a core and winding wound around a winding axis extending along a limb of the core, said winding terminating in an axial end surface extending in a direction perpendicular to said winding axis, said transformer comprising a ring comprising magnetic material, said ring being located outside said winding and adjacent to said axial end surface. The ring comprises a set of magnetic metal components, such as magnetic metal sheets, said magnetic metal components being distributed about the winding axis and electrically insulated from each other. The core comprises a yoke, said yoke extending radially across the ring, at one or more crossing locations, from a radial inside of the ring to a radial outside of the ring. The cross-sectional height of the ring varies about the winding axis such that magnetic metal components at the crossing locations have lower height along the winding axis than magnetic metal components further away from the crossing locations.

Abstract: A winding for a phase winding of a transformer. The winding has coil turns around a coil axis. The winding is adapted to transform voltage in a transformer at a predetermined frequency, when the transformer is operating. The winding is excited by a mechanical load having a main frequency corresponding to the predetermined frequency multiplied by two and has vibration modes. The combination of load and vibration modes results in a vibration of the winding. The winding has a set of vibration modes. Each vibration mode has a vibration mode frequency, wherein a main contributing vibration mode of the set of vibration modes is the vibration mode resulting in the largest acoustic power of the vibration modes. The winding is excited by the load and a stiffness difference between a first winding portion stiffness and a second winding portion stiffness is such that the acoustic power is minimized at said main frequency.
