Abstract

Corona occurs in transmission lines when the surface voltage gradient of the line conductor reaches the breakdown stress. In such, a loss of power and energy dissipation, called as corona loss. The bundled conductors reduce the reactance of the transmission line, thereby reducing corona losses. This paper analyze corona loss with modeling of transmission line and also analyze the voltage gradient of bundle conductors by using Maxwell's potential matrix. The scheme is mainly based on conductor spacing by using Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) technique where the robustness of the proposed scheme is ensured by considering number of sub-conductors i.e. for two-in, three-in, four-in, six-in and eight-in bundled conductor.

Keywords
