ACSR Strands Stress Numerical Simulation
As an important carrier of electricity power, ACSR is a principal part of power system and is directly related to the transmission line reliability and safety. ACSR strands stress analysis is the foundation of studying ACSR mechanical properties. In this paper, finite element method is used to analysis the Acsr strands stress. The structural characteristics of Acsr is considered and the complete Acsr model is created by ansys to simulate the distribution of stress and strain under appropriate boundary conditions. The Conclusions are drawn that both the state of strands stress and the stress concentration level are related with its structural properties. The strands of out layers bears more stress and firstly comes into plastic strain. The results of the research is helpful to the further study of ACSR strength and conductor fatigue life.
