Analysis of Aerodynamic Characteristics of Iced Conductor Based on Fluent
To understand the aerodynamic characteristics of an iced conductor under wind load
the air flow field around the iced conductor was simulated with the software Fluent.The lift coefficient
drag coefficient and torsional coefficient under different attack angles were calculated for the iced conductors with different ice thickness.The influences of ice thickness and wind speed on the aerodynamic parameters of iced conductors were obtained.The results show that the ice thickness exerts significant influence on the drag coefficient
lift coefficient and torsional coefficient.The wind velocity exerts great influence on the drag coefficient
but slight influence on lift coefficient and torsional coefficient.The computation results may facilitate the research of conductor galloping.
