Simulation calculation method of contact resistance at grounding conductor connection part based on COMSOL
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of power system grounding simulation calculation, and particularly relates to a COMSOL-based grounding conductor connection contact resistance simulation calculation method.
Background
With the continuous improvement of the voltage level of the power grid, the highest voltage level reaches 1000kV, the grounding short-circuit current of the system is increased, and the voltage of the grounding grid is increased. In large earth current systems, the short circuit current flowing into the earth grid is typically in the range of a few thousand amperes to a few tens of kiloamperes. Such a strong short-circuit current flows through the earth screen conductor and dissipates into the ground, which generates a high amount of heat in the conductor.
When the temperature of the conductors exceeds a certain value and the conductors are naturally cooled in the soil, the mechanical properties of the conductors are obviously reduced, particularly at the connecting part between the conductors, because the contact resistance is large, when short-circuit current passes through the connecting part, the temperature is far higher than other positions, and the conductors reach the melting point of the metal material, so that the conductors are melted. This can promote the ground net conductor fracture, and the ground net disintegrates to greatly reduce the reliability of ground net, cause the potential safety hazard. Therefore, how to evaluate the magnitude of the contact resistance at the ground conductor connection is a problem that needs to be solved urgently at present.
The invention aims to overcome the defects of the prior art, provides a COMSOL-based grounding conductor connection contact resistance simulation calculation method, evaluates the size of the grounding conductor connection contact resistance, makes a measure for reducing the contact resistance in time and improves the current capacity of the grounding conductor.
