Simulation of Radial Breakdowns on the Breaker Grading Capacitor of 500 kV AC Filter
In order to find out the cause of radial breakdown on the breaker grading capacitor of 500 kV AC filter in a converter station
the simulation model of the fourth group AC filter of converter station is set up by ATP/EMTP.Taking into account the influence of the capacitance distribution and external contamination of the grading capacitor
the potential differences are studied within different positions
such as internal and external surface of the fault grading capacitor
the fault place and the static contact.The calculation results show that the main causes of radial breakdowns are insufficiency of wall thickness of the breaker grading capacitor and external pollution.Finally
the internal and external electric field distributions of the grading capacitor are analyzed by three-dimensional finite element method.The improvement program including increasing the thickness of the grading capacitor or changing into the porcelain grading capacitor are put forward.
