Corona discharges form at the surface of a transmission line conductor when the electric-field intensity on the conductor surface exceeds the breakdown strength of air. In order to decrease the electric-field intensity on the conductor surface, a new 6 conductor bundle has been studied. This bundle, hybrid conductor bundle, consists of using a larger subconductor at the bottom two conductor positions in the 6-conductor bundles of each phase of the line. The electric field on these two larger subconductors is reduced which in turn reduces the corona noise. It is shown that this is a better solution for decreasing the electric-field intensity than ether the conventional bundle or the asymmetric bundle proposed by EPRI.

Overhead transmission lines are classified by the number of sub conductors per phase. Korean transmission lines use two, four, or six-conductor bundle. Bundle of conductors must have spacers or spacer dampers which keep the proper distance between sub conductors. They can prevent conductors from being vibrated or twisted due to the wind. As for the two-conductor bundle, alternating current flow generates absorption force between sub conductors which may cause a collision of sub conductors. To prevent sub conductors from being vibrated, twisted, and collided, spacer or spacer damper installation method is designed considering vibration characteristics of sub conductors. We have spacer installation method for four or six-conductor bundle lines. However, we don't have it for two-conductor bundle ones. So we have installed spacers at regular intervals in two-conductor bundle lines, and it caused rigid body oscillation of conductors due to the wind which made a flashover between conductors. This paper introduces a vibration characteristic analysis of two-conductor bundle and proposes a spacer installation method for two-conductor bundle lines.

This paper describes the corona characteristics of conductor bundle for EHV transmission line. To reduce the corona noise, the asymmetric conductor bundle to minimize the electric field of the conductor surface is proposed. The charge simulation method is used to formulate the electric field of conductor surface and the optimal arrangement of subconductor to minimize it is selected to apply the nonlinear successive quadratic programming. Through the analytical comparison and the corona cage test, it is proved that the asymmetric conductor bundle proposed in this paper can reduce the average maximum electric field of the phase conductors and the corona noise more than the conventional symmetric conductor bundle and asymmetric conductor bundle by GE.

For 4-conductor bundle transmission line spacer damper are equipped so as to keep the spacing between sub conductors. For 4-conductor bundle the subspan spacing of a spacer damper is determined and applied in order that the bundle may get restored to a normal state when 4-conductor bundle is rolled by rigid body vibration due to wind. But 4 conductors of 345kV 4-conductor bundle transmission line were twisted by the angle of $315^{\circ}$ for the first time korea. In this paper, we will analyze the reason of the power line twisting of 4-conductor bundle which occurred for the first time in korea and offer the preventive countermeasures for this

The subspan oscillation is the most important in bundled transmission lines, which can cause conductor damage and transmission line hardware failures. So it is necessary to analyze the subspan oscillation in details for transmission lines. This paper suggests the basic concept and theoretical analysis method of subspan oscillation for 6 bundle conductor transmission line, which considers wind speed, subspan length and conductor tension. Especially this paper uses a spacer damper model with clamp-arm flexibility and damping characteristics. Theoretical analysis results are proposed.

Spacer dampers maintain the constant gaps between each conductor in a bundle conductor-transmission line, and are installed at proper intervals to keep a line from all sorts of damages derived from the vibration energy caused by mechanical or electrical external factors. It is most important to embody a technology which considers difficulties of maintenance and repair, and has optimum elements in order to prevent accidents such as destruction by fire or the snapping of a wire by the effect of vibration phenomenon coming from transmission line. In the present thesis, therefore, the analysis of vibratory characteristics of spacer damper is set up by analytical methods such as the analysis of conductor motion's governing equation, the equation of spacer damper's motion, spacer damper-fastened wire's motion in a span, and the numerical analysis of finite difference method. Furthermore, the installation distance between spacer dampers was scrutinized by simulations of various vibration phenomena which change at any time as actual conditions do, and hereafter we will be able to analyze all kinds of vibration phenomena coming from a boltless spacer damper with 6 bundle conductor for 765 k V transmission line based on new analytical methods.

Negative corona onset characteristics of the stranded conductors based on the ultra-high voltage (UHV) corona cage were studied in the paper. Based on the corona self-sustaining criterion in extreme uneven electric fields and the secondary emission process of the photoelectrons, the corona onset calculation model in the UHV corona cage is established and the corona current tests of the single LGJ900-75, 6 bundle LGJ900-75, 8 bundle LGJ400-35 conductors in dry and rain conditions were done in the UHV corona cage, and the rain rates are 2.4 mm/h, 20 mm/h and 30 mm/h. Corona onset electric field strength is gained by E-I tangent method, and the onset electric field strength in dry condition proves that the calculation model can be used to calculate the corona onset characteristics of the bundle conductors in the UHV corona cage. A further analysis proves that: the negative corona onset voltage of the conductor increases with the bundle number and the diameter of the sub conductor, but decreases with the bundle space in the corona cage. The onset electric field strength is influenced little by bundle space and bundle number, but decreases with the increase of the diameter of the sub-conductor. The surface irregularity coefficient decreases with the rain rate.

In this paper, 3-dimensional charge simulation method was applied to analyze electric field distributions of special conductor bundles equipped with spiral rods for reducing aeolian noise in a corona cage. Comparing electric field distributions of special conductor bundles in 765kV transmission tine with ones in corona case, we decide experimental voltages of special conductor bundles in corona cage.

Corona interferences, such as radio noise, audible noise and television noise, need to be taken into account in the design of HVDC transmission line conductor configuration. Therefore the line designer requires data from which to estimate the corona performance of any set of conductors. To get a sufficiently complete set of design data, it is necessary to examine the corona test of a large number of conductor geometries. This paper presents the results of corona cage test among three types of candidate conductors. It is quite clear from test results that the conductor geometries play an important role in establishing the magnitude of corona noise. Corona noise data from corona cage test are expressed as a statistical distribution of results obtained over long periods of time and various weather conditions. Therefore we can determine an environmentally-friendly conductor bundle for HVDC overhead transmission line. Based on this finding results, various simulations about HVDC line configurations, such as pole space and pole height, will be conducted. And then finally an optimal configuration for HVDC transmission line will be decided.

송전전압이 500kV 이상이 되면, 송전도체의 코로나 방전에 의해 발생되는 가청소음, 험소음이 송전선로의 도체 선정에 중요한 요소가 되며 또한 바람에 의한 철탑과 도체의 풍소음도 발생한다. 본 논문은 세계최초로 765kV 2회선 교류 송전선을 개발하기 위해 건설한 한전 전력연구웜 765kV 시험송전선로의 상당 480mm$^{2}$ 도체 6가닥으로 구성된 송전선 구성에서 가정소음, 험소음, 풍소음의 통계적인 분석 결과를 나타내었다. 분석결과를 보면 6-480mm$^{2}$ 도체와 철탑구성이 가청소음 설계목표치인 50dB(A)를 만족함을 알 수 있다.
