Overview

Aiming at the problem of nonlinear vibration of current-carrying iced conductors, the aerodynamic forces are introduced into the previous vibration equation of current-carrying conductors that only considered Ampere’s forces. At the same time, on this basis, a forced excitation load is further introduced to study the influence of dynamic wind on the nonlinear vibration characteristics of current-carrying iced conductors, and a new current-carrying iced conductors system under the combined action of Ampere’s forces, forced excitation, and aerodynamic forces has been established, and the improved theoretical modeling of current-carrying iced transmission lines made the model more in line with practical engineering. Firstly, the model of current-carrying iced conductors was established, and then the vibration equation of the model was derived. And the vibration equation was transformed into a finite dimensional ordinary differential equation by using the Galerkin method. The amplitude-frequency response functions of the nonlinear forced primary resonances and super-harmonic and subharmonic resonances of the system are derived by using the multiscale method. Through numerical calculation, the influence of current-carrying, spacing, wind velocity, tension, and excitation amplitude on the response amplitude when the primary resonance of the system appears is analyzed, and the difference between the two working conditions (considering the aerodynamic forces and without considering aerodynamic forces) is compared. The influence of the variation of current-carrying i on the response amplitude of super-harmonic and subharmonic resonances and the stability of the steady-state solution of forced primary resonance was analyzed. The results show that the response amplitude and the nonlinearilty of system under the action of aerodynamic forces are smaller and weaker than without the action of aerodynamic forces; the variation of line parameters has a certain influence on the response amplitude of conductor and the nonlinearity of system; the response amplitudes of the primary resonance, super-harmonic resonance, and subharmonic resonance increase with the increase in the excitation amplitudes, and the resonance peak is offset towards the negative value of the tuning parameter σ, showing the characteristics of soft spring, and the response amplitudes are accompanied by complex nonlinear dynamic behaviors such as the multivalue and jump phenomenon. The change of current-carrying i has an obvious effect on the nonlinearity of the system. The nonlinear and response amplitudes of the system are also enhanced with the increase in wind velocity. The stability of the system is judged when the primary resonance occurs, and it is found that the response amplitude shows synchronization and the out-of-step phenomenon with the change of tuning parameters. The research results obtained in this paper would help to further improve the theoretical modeling about current-carrying iced lines, and the research of line parameters can give a certain reference value to practical engineering, and it will have a positive effect on the safe operation of high-voltage transmission lines.
