Abstract
The ionized field is one of significant parameters to evaluate the electromagnetic environment of ultra-high-voltage direct current (UHVDC) transmission lines. The field mill is usually utilized to measure the ionized field on the ground level under the UHVDC power lines. In order to investigate the distortion characteristics of the ionized field with the presence of spaces charges near the probe of the field mill, Poisson's equation and current continuity equation are solved, respectively, based on the finite-element method and Gauss's law in the cylindrical coordinate system. The ionized fields on the surface of the probe are calculated under different ion current densities. An experimental apparatus with corona wire net and ground plate is designed and used to measure the ionized field and ion current density. Experimental results have shown that the measured data are consistent with the calculated ones, which verify the validity of the algorithm presented. The impact of the space charges on the field mill may provide valuable reference for the measurement of the electromagnetic environment of UHVDC projects.
