Methodology to calculate the density of the magnetic field generated in overhead transmission lines in HVDC applying a two-dimensional analysis of parallel poles above ground level

Abstract

The growth in the demand for electricity has led to the development and application of technologies that make its means of transport more efficient. Thus, one of these options is the implementation of transmission lines in HVDC. One of important design parameters of these lines is to know their magnetic field distribution, when it is required to calculate it, there is no methodology that can be applied to HVDC transmission lines. The following article presents a methodology that allows obtaining the density of the magnetic field on the corridor of an overhead transmission line. A case study of a 500 kV bipolar line in HVDC is presented, the results obtained are compared using the commercial software Field and corona Effects (FACE), the results obtained are consistent with those obtained from the presented methodology. An analysis of the impact of the transmission line configuration on the magnetic field density is developed, defining the most efficient configuration.
