Abstract:
We present an aeroelastic model design and method creation based on the case of an ±800 kV ultrahigh voltage (UHV) power transmission line from Xiang Jiaba to Shanghai, P. R. Chin, Both the centralized and discreted stiffness modeling methods are unsuitable for tower aeroelastic modeling. Taking these stiffness and aerodynamic characteristics into account, we introduce a new method to create an aeroelastic model that includes a semirigid model segment and Ushaped springs. Because the span of this transmission line is too long to fit within the wind tunnel in the same proportions as the tower, the proportions of the line model is condensed further. Aeroelastic test requirements can be satisfied by comparing theoretical analysis and actual measurements of the system model dynamics.
