Numerical Calculation of There-dimensional Electric Field and Optimal Design of 1 100 kV Class B-type Earthing Switch
The electrostatic field simulation can help to guide the structure optimization of an earthing switch
shortenthe product development cycle
and reduce the product development costs. In this study
a 1 100 kV B-type earthingswitch for the supplemental lines of Chengde UHV transmission line was taken as an example to calculate the electricfield distribution around the switch surface in open state. Firstly
according to the design dimensions
a three-dimension-al mathematical model was established using the software SolidWorks. Secondly
according to the three-dimensional fi-nite element numerical method
the finite element analysis software was used to calculate and analyze the electric poten-tial and electric field around the earthing switch surface at the typical moment
thus the electric potential and field distri-bution were obtained. Simulation result showed that higher electric field intensity appeared on the auxiliary loop gradingring
static contact grading rings and moving contact. Thirdly
optimal design for these high electric field intensity areaswas carried out
consequently the electric field around grading ring surface was in safe range
and the electric fieldaround moving contact surface was significantly improved. Finally
electrostatic induction current switching tests wereconducted on the optimized earthing switch
verifying the rationality of the optimization. This study may provide a theo-retical reference for development and popularization of 1 100 kV B-type earthing switch.
