Computer Aided Analysis of Transmission Line Electric Field Strength

Hunt, James Ray

Abstract Details

1976, Master of Science, Ohio State University, Electrical and Computer Engineering.
Recent increases in transmission line voltages have increased electric field strength values, causing concern about possible health hazards due to induced currents. This thesis presents the basic equations that describe electro¬static fields of transmission lines. The polarization el¬lipse is used to describe the electric field strength at points near a three-phase transmission line. Results of modeling ground as a conductor or a dielectric are consi¬dered. Case studies made with a computer program consider several conductor configurations. Equipotential and equi-gradient maps are shown to evaluate the overall electric field effect.
