Abstract: The UHV transmission lines usually have large regional spans and involve various weather conditions, which will have different effects on the circuit design and electromagnetic environment. However, the existing research lacks the ion flow field analysis of AC and DC parallel lines under different weather conditions. Hence, we studied the distribution law of the ion flow field of ±800 kV DC and 500 kV AC parallel transmission lines under different weather conditions, and compared the calculated results with measured results. First, we used the meshless method to model the ion flow field of AC and DC parallel lines in different weathers. Then, the influence of environmental factors on the ion flow field was analyzed. The effects of temperature, humidity and haze on the distribution of the ion flow field were obtained based on long-term monitoring and measurement. Results show that the ion flow field of the theoretical calculation results was basically in accord with the actual measurement. The ion flow field of parallel lines increases with the rise of temperature, first increases and then decreases with the rise of humidity, and increases with the rise of haze.
Keywords: Ion flow field, weather conditions, parallel lines, meshless method
