본 논문에서는 송전선로 도체의 경년열화(thermal deterioration)를 평가하기 위해 확률적 기법을 도입하였다. 선로의 경년열화를 나타내기 위해 선로의 장력(tensile strength) 감소를 계산하며 이는 해당 선로의 과거 전류 이력과 선로가 위치한 지역의 과거 기상데이터 및 부하량의 변화를 통해 산출한다 첫째로, 과거 데이터를 통해 확률분포를 구한 후 모든 데이터는 통계적으로 서로 간에 독립적이라는 가정 하에 Monte-Carlo Simulation을 수행하였다. 둘째로, 과거 데이터의 이력을 시간순서대로 추종하여 1시간 단위로 장력변화를 누적하는 순차적 계산(dynamic calculation)을 수행하였으며 그 결과를 MCS 기법과 비교하였다 주로 백분율로 표현하는 도체의 장력 감소분은 송전선로의 수명을 결정하는데 사용할 수 있는 중요한 지수이때, 계통계획에 있어서 유용한 기준으로 사용할 수 있을 것이다.

In this paper, we analyze the inductive interference in conductive material around power transmission line. To compute induced eddy currents as well as electromagnetic fields, finite element method(FEM) is used for numerical calculation. The characteristics of conductive material such as gas pipeline, overhead guide wires, conducting earth and so on are taken account of FEM analysis. This research also shows that mitigation wire reduces amount of eddy current in buried gas pipe line.

Generally, the deterioration characteristics of a conductor affected by a forest fire can be analyzed through simulation of a forest fire and results of the simulation. However, there are little accomplishments of that kind of simulation applied to the power transmission, and there aren't actual analysis for a sample exposed in a forest fire. This paper deals with the experimental results that apply to a new wire by an artificial flame equipment because it's difficult to directly analyze the characteristic by a forest fire. Also, after an artificial flame is applied to a normal ACSR for various experimental conditions, changes of mechanical and material characteristics of the ACSR were analyzed by the surface inspection and load-tests of tensile of the ACSR. Then, the database will be made to made to predict the state of deteriorated wires by a forest fire using those two data, and data necessary to diagnose the life state of an ACSR wire affected by a forest fire will be given.

The new deregulated economic environment in the power utility market is forcing fundamental changes in the investment and operational decisions regarding transmission lines. Hence, it has come to be an important issue to evaluate their current utility in order to increase conductor ampacity based on conservative assumptions of worst case weather conditions. Static thermal rating has born still applied in most power companies worldwide, however some of them have been done various trials such as monitoring dynamic line ratings to increase line ratings in real time. This study is an attempt to access the static line ratings in Korea Electric Power Corporation(KEPCO) transmission lines, which were specified by weather model. Several environmental performances for determining static line ratings are examined by using the past weather data of Korean Meteorological Administration. As a result, it is shown that seasonal or regional line ratings could be adopt to the KEPCO's transmission lines, and their line ratings could be more increased without refurbishing current conductors in service to new high-temperature ones.

This paper describes several performances and nondestructive inspection for deterioration due to forest fires in overhead transmission lines. After discussing corrosion mechanism such as atmospheric and galvanic corrosion for aged ACSR conductors and its detection for them are presented. Through impedance analysis of a solenoid coil, it is shown that the eddy current sensor may be available to inspect severe fault or local corrosion. As the solenoid coil changes its impedance when the test conductor is inserted into the coil, it can be possible to measure deterioration degree caused by forest fires. Tensile strength, extension rate and sensor impedance are tested for some samples degraded by artificial fire. As increasing blazed period to some extent, the strength of aluminum strand begins to be reduced remarkably, while galvanized steel strand holds the similar strength to the initial value, despite of appearing a little loss of zinc layer. In general, it is shown that the sensor impedance would be increased while the tension load of conductor is reduced and the extension rate is contrarily increased. Therefore, the sensor output could exhibit the changes of mechanical performances, and would be used to detect such deterioration caused by forest fire in ACSR conductors built on the ridge of mountains. Finally, it was verified that the solenoid coil could be applicable to obtain any crucial inform for serious deterioration due to forest fires.

송전선로의 송전능력은 크게 연속허용용량과 단시간 허용 용량으로 구분되는데, 단시간 허용용량은 전선의 수명에 영향을 미치므로 이에 대한 명확한 기준과 관리가 필요하다. 단시간 운영기준의 정립을 위해서는 송전선 도체의 과부하 시간에 따른 도체수명평가 기술이 필요하며, 선로의 취약지점인 접속개소에 대한 열특성 분석이 수반되어져야 한다. 본 논문에서는 과부하시나 돌발적 위급상황시 송전선의 단시간 운영과 관련된 도체 및 접속개소의 열특성을 파악하기 위하여 전선 및 접속슬리브의 고온인장강도시험과 가속열화시험을 통해 단시간 허용 온도특성을 살펴보고, 그 결과에 대하여 분석 및 검토한다. 분석 및 검토결과는 ACSR계 도체의 단시간허용온도가 현행의 100$^{\circ}C$에서 120$^{\circ}C$ 이상으로 상향조정이 가능함을 보여준다.

Among mitigation techniques for electric and magnetic field (EMF) from an overhead transmission line a passive loop is a way that can be cheap and easily installed on the existing towers and have a satisfactory effect as well. However current induced in the passive loop causes transmission power loss and the phase imbalance increases since geometrical asymmetry of the transmission lines becomes larger. So in order to evaluate the power loss and the phase imbalance due to a passive loop, this paper represent a 345[kV] 1-circuit flat type transmission line as asymmetrical 3-phase distributed parameter line model where the effect of a passive loop is embedded in the line parameters, and then formulates differential equations. By solving these equations voltages and currents of each phase at receiving end become known. We find out that power losses occur differently at each phase and positive sequence component decreases at receiving end while negative sequence component increase. In general phase imbalance due to a passive loop is slight, but it increases in proportional to the induced current and length of section where the passive loop is installed. Thus the phase imbalance should be included in terms of cost for introducing a passive loop.
