  • For estimating the vortex excited vibrations of overhead transmission lines, the Energy Balance Principle (EBP) is well established for spans damped near the ends. Although it involves radical simplifications, the method is known to give useful estimates of the maximum vibration levels. For very long spans, there often is the need for a large number of in-span fittings, such as in-span Stockbridge dampers, aircraft warning spheres etc. This adds complexity to the problem and makes the energy balance principle in its original form unsuitable. In this paper, a modified version of EBP is described taking into account in-span damping and in particular also aircraft warning spheres. In the first step the complex transcendental eigenvalue problem is solved for the conductor with in-span fittings. With the thus determined complex eigenvalues and eigenfunctions a modified energy balance principle is then used for scaling the amplitudes of vibrations at each resonance frequency. Bending strains are then estimated at the critical points of the conductor. The approach has been used by the authors for studying the influence of in-span Stockbridge dampers and aircraft warning spheres; and for optimizing their positions in the span. The modeling of the aircraft warning sphere is also described in some detail.

  • 가공선로 표지물로 사용되는 구에서 발생하는 소음의 특성을 조사하였다. 현재 한전에서 사용하고 있는 표지용 구의 크기는 직경 62cm이며 두께가 3mm인 합성수지로 만든 반구를 접합부분에 요철형상으로 결합하도록 되어있다. 현장에서 발생하는 소음 스펙트럼을 측정하여, 무향 풍동에서 측정한 구형 셀에서 발생하는 스퍽트럼과 비교하였다. 백색음을 입사하여 구형 셀의 크기에서 발생하는 기본음의 스펙트럼을 조사하였다.
