How to accurately evaluate the direct-strike lightning protection is one of the key issues in the design of transmission lines.
In this paper, three important issues in applying the fractal simulation to the lightning protection of transmission lines
were discussed, including the criteria and implementation of upward leader inception, the connection with the magnitude of
lightning current, and the calculation and control of fractal dimensions. Then we conducted the simulation iterately, leading
to statistical results, which indicate that even if the transmission line satisfies the perfect shielding condition, shielding
failure fault remains possible. Furthermore, we calculated the shielding failure fault rates of an EHV line with different
ground obliquities and distribution of strike points over the interval between two neighboring towers along a UHV-DC line
to find out the weak point of transmission-line lightning protection. This work provides a promising approach for improving
the lightning protection property of transmission lines by optimizing the configuration of shielding wires and phase or pole
conductors. 相似文献
With the help of double hydrogen bonds between urea groups, a self-healing anti-icing coating was prepared from polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS)-based polyurea (PDMSPU) that was synthesized from bis(3-aminopropyl)-terminated PDMS and 2,4-toluene diisocyanate. Furthermore, by incorporating a lubricant of inert silicone oil and the cross-linking agent of 1,3,5-tris-(4-aminophenoxy)benzene (TAPOB), the anti-icing coatings exhibited elastic, slippery and durable properties. The wettability, ice shear strength, abrasion-resistance, mechanical and self-healing properties of the prepared anti-icing coatings were systematically investigated. Results showed that the ice shear strength of the PDMSPU anti-icing coating with 150 wt% silicone oil was 7.9±2.9 kPa, significantly lower than that of pristine PDMSPU (74.7±7.2 kPa). The additional introduction of 2 wt% TAPOB could effectively counteract the adverse effect of the lubricant so that the tensile strength (∼1 MPa) of the coating could be comparable to pristine PDMSPU (855±96 kPa). The PDMSPU coating containing 150 wt% silicone oil and 2 wt% TAPOB could maintain the ice shear strength below 50 kPa against 10 icing/deicing cycles and at 12.0±3.3 kPa after 5000 abrasion cycles, and exhibit self-healing properties after treating at 60°C for 10 or 15 h. The slippery self-healing PDMSPU anti-icing coatings could be suitable for anti-icing surfaces in low temperature environments.
