Abstract
The first comprehensive test base of electrical test transmission line in China has been established. Galloping response characteristics of real test tower-line system covered with D-shape ice model under natural wind load has been recorded. According to the structural details of the test tower-line, the detailed numerical model of the three spans tower-line system has been set up by nonlinear finite element method (FEM). Then, the digital stochastic wind field is presented. Galloping behaviors of the D-shape iced 6-bundle conductors in the test line under stochastic wind field is numerically simulated. Finally, the dynamic response of displacements, galloping traces, galloping modes, and frequencies are obtained. The numerical simulation results are consistent with the measured galloping characteristics results of the test transmission tower-line, which verifies the efficiency of the numerical model. It is demonstrated that the established FEM numerical method can be applied to investigate galloping behaviors of tower-line. Meanwhile, based on the numerical simulation results, the variation of stress and displacement of tower during galloping is also discussed.
