Computer Aided Design, Analysis & Comparison of Various Configurations of U.H.V. Transmission Line

Abstract

The manual method of transmission line design involves tedious calculation and relies on the knowledge and experience of designer. Computational design of transmission line gives faster result and wide vision of the probable solutions. According to the existing constraint variable, design parameters and solution varies. For UHV transmission line design, certain areas are given more importance, such as corona loss, electric and magnetic fields. Transmission line designing is done in such a way that conductor has low losses. The system should have high efficiency, good voltage regulation, less Radio interference, Television interference and Audible noise. By using high order bundled conductor, the corona loss, Audible noise, Radio interference is reduced.This Project will provide an insight into design of UHV transmission line. Almost all the electrical calculation will discuss which will require for UHV transmission line design. These calculations will require for selection of appropriate conductor for power transmission, at ultra-high voltage level. A VB+ based software will be developed so as to calculate all electrical parameter required for transmission line design by providing required parameters. Programming will be developed for single circuit transmission line, including up to eight sub-conductor in a bundle.
