Optimization Design for Grading Ring of Composite Insulators in UHV Transmission Lines Based on RBF-GA
UHV composite insulator surface potential is very unevenly distributed
and there is an intense local electric field strength on the surface of the insulator sheath near high voltage insulator end fitting
accelerating the aging of insulators. The method of installing the grading ring to resolve the issue is commonly adopted in engineering. The effect of electric field distributing depends on the structural parameters of grading ring. In order to conclude optimized structural parameters
it is of great necessity to study the optimization of the tube radius
the ring radius and the projection from high voltage end fitting.In this paper
an improved genetic algorithm(GA) has been adopted because the traditional genetic algorithm is time consuming in grading ring optimization. Radial base function-GA(RBF-GA) is an effective method which combines the approximate ability of any continuous function with arbitrary precision of RBF network and the ability of global optimizing of GA. This paper calculates the distribution of electric field by using finite element method and uses RBF network to approximate the maximum electric field strength on the surface of the insulator sheath near high voltage insulator end fitting. Finally
this paper optimizes the structural parameters by using GA based on the fitting value. The optimization speed of grading ring structural parameters based on RBF-GA method significantly is accelerated with good optimization results
