Time and Frequency Response of Non-uniform Overhead Lines Under Corona
Abstract: This study presents an efficient and direct technique for determining both the time and frequency responses of non-uniform overhead power transmission lines operating under corona conditions. The assumed-line's non-uniformity is due to the conductors’ sag. Expressions will be presented for the location-dependent line surge impedance and the unevenly distributed lines’ electrical parameters. The analysis starts with solving the relevant system of differential and algebraic equations, subject to the boundary conditions. …
