How to determine fan and motor for cooling system of tansformer.
(OP)
In the Design of Transfomer have ONAN system, if we want to change being ONAF, what the rating of fan to be increase the rating up to 15 %. How to determine that? Please Help me..

Volume of oil in the tank and cooling equipment, ambient air temp, cooling surface area, transformer winding insulation type, winding temperature indicator/s, winding hotspot temperature calculation, top-oil temperature rise over ambient temperature at rated load, bottom-oil temperature rise over ambient temperature at rated load, load losses at rated load, no-load (core) loss, winding resistances, etc.
And then do what Rafiq said for a start.

There are two ways of putting cooling fans on radiator fins.From bottom of stack or side mounted.Size of propellar fans may be 18,24 or 36 inches-can be single phase or three phase.There is an optimum air flow above which there is no advantage in increasing air flow rate.
