Abstract

Ultra-high voltage guyed tower is typical structure of tall and slender, with the character of nonlinear and more sensitive to wind loads. Wind load is one of the most important control loads during design phase. A single-mast guyed tower recommended by a UHV DC transmission line was set as an example in this paper. The finite-element model of transmission tower-line system was built, based on Davenport, fluctuating wind velocity time-history was simulated, the result of wind-induced response was analyzed. The result indicates that, as for displacements of the nodes on guyed tower, the mean values of wind-induced response are greater than the displacements under the static equivalent wind loads. As for axial forces of the leg members on guyed tower, the axial forces under the static equivalent wind loads are less than the max values of wind-induced response.
