Abstract

The stable operation of high-voltage transmission lines is significantly affected by atmospheric icing. Research on the physical processes of icing and de-icing of transmission lines in micro-terrain, as well as the factors affecting them, is a crucial theoretical foundation for enhancing current icing prediction capabilities and guiding the planning of transmission lines in mountainous areas. The difficulty lies in the fact that, unlike the calculation of surface radiation, the amount of radiation received by the lines is affected by a combination of terrain, environmental shading, and the orientation of the lines. Therefore, this work initially establishes a method for calculating the total amount of radiant heat received per unit length of the line throughout the day at various heights from the ground, based on the angle of solar incidence and the three-dimensional spatial position of the lines. Furthermore, a method of mapping the regional heat radiation by gridding the direction of the lines was proposed, providing the daily heat radiation and equivalent Joule heat. The proposed mapping method supports anti-icing planning for high-voltage transmission lines in micro-terrain areas.
