3-D Simulation of Ion Flow Fields Across the Span of UHVDC Transmission Lines
The two-dimensional model for calculating UHVDC transmission lines’ ion flow field is unable to correctly reflect the distribution of electric field when the sag in a span is considered. In this paper
we use the charge simulation method for calculation of nominal field
and conduct a 3-D simulation of the UHVDC transmission lines’ ion flow field by adopting the catenary equation that fits transmission line and considering the change of the electric field on conductor surface. The simulation results are compared with the measured values
and the results indicate that: ① the composite electric field on the ground gets weaker if the sag is considered; ② the distribution of the composite electric field is symmetrical in the directions along and vertical to the line with a maximum field strength at outside of the line two meters away from the maximum sag point; ③the composite electric field gets decaying gradually in the directions along and vertical to the transmission lines with the increasing distance to the maximum sag point.
