Abstract

Transfer of bulk electric power required in the modern world can be realized only through Extra High Voltage and Ultra High Voltage transmission lines. The scenario is dominated by overhead lines in which electromagnetic noise generated by corona is an important concern. Corona-induced currents propagate along line conductors producing electromagnetic noise, which is essential to be quantified. Towards this end, the present work aims to investigate basic mechanism of current induction using an isolated avalanche developing under space charge modulated background field. Beginning with the complete electric field produced by an avalanche, the corresponding induced currents are quantified, and the structure of electric and magnetic fields is extracted. The well-known time-domain electric field integral equation is employed for the purpose. The basic issue with long transmission line modelling is amply demonstrated. Since single avalanche is the basic mechanism behind corona, general inferences drawn are applicable for corona on transmission lines.
