To my knowledge no transformer is air conditioned. Some Transformers have fans mounted on them, however, for uprating purposes. I don't believe this is an effective cooling mechanism for dry type transformers either (fans are usually used on oil filled transformers).

What is a dry-type transformer?

Electric company high voltage transformers used in the utility grid are typically insulated by being immersed in a tank of oil, and cooled by natural convection (circulation) of the oil. A "dry type" transformer is not immersed in oil, and is cooled by air convection or by fans.

What is difference between a wet type and dry type transformer?

Transformer oil is a much better electrical insulator than air. So, in large transformers, oil is used to reduce the flashover distances between live internal parts, thus reducing the overall bulk of the transformer. At the same time, oil helps cool the transformer either by natural convection, or by forced circulation.'Dry transformers' are transformer that do not use oil for insulation or cooling purposes. They tend to be transformers with lower voltage and power ratings, where flashover and cooling is far less relevant.

Why silicon gel used in transformer?

A transformer is fitted with a 'breather' pipe, which allows the air within the transformer (or its conservator tank) to enter or leave, as the oil (coolant) level changes due to contraction or expansion. As the air inside the transformer tank (or conservator tank) must be kept dry, the breather pipe is fitted with a chamber containing silica gel crystals which dry any air drawn into the transformer.

Why does your throat feel very dry when you sleep in an air conditioned room?

Because the process of refrigerating ("conditioning") air not only reduces its temperature, but also reduces its relative humidity, so the air in the bedroom is relatively dry air, and your pipes dry out from breathing it all night.
