ABSTRACT
In this article, the subject of investigation is high-voltage overhead transmission lines. As known, such lines exhibit the phenomenon of “conductor galloping.” Conductor galloping involves low-frequency oscillations with a significant amplitude, typically occurring during windy and icy conditions. These oscillations can be considered a factor that reduces the reliability of the power supply. This article aims to enhance the efficiency of using high-voltage overhead transmission lines under ice and wind conditions through the systematization of scattered information and knowledge, as well as the potential for discovering new directions in the study of conductor galloping. The analysis includes examining the results of multi-year statistical data observations on conductor galloping in power systems. Theoretical models of galloping are considered based on equations of dynamics and energy balance. Experimental data is obtained by observing a conductor galloping at a test site with the registration of vibration parameters. General reliability issues of overhead transmission lines are addressed. Results of statistical studies are analyzed, covering the complex conditions favoring the occurrence of conductor galloping, typical damages to elements of power lines, and an assessment of the expected intensity of galloping. The article presents the results from theoretical and experimental research, including physical and mathematical models of conductor galloping, conditions for instability of icy conductors in a wind flow, and some findings from experiments conducted at the test site. Methods to combat the phenomenon of “conductor galloping” are identified, providing a brief overview and analysis of existing measures to suppress conductor galloping. Suggestions are made for using the most effective and economical damper for conductor galloping in the split phase of the power line. The data presented in the article reveal key issues related to conductor galloping, existing methods for their resolution, and new avenues for researching this phenomenon and promising ideas.

Problemy zwiększania niezawodności przesyłu energii elektrycznej liniami wysokiego napięcia w warunkach zwiększonego ryzyka klimatycznego
galopowanie przewodów, wpływy lodu i wiatru, bilans energetyczny, drgania przewodów, samooscylacje
W niniejszym artykule przedmiotem badania są napowietrzne linie przesyłowe wysokiego napięcia. Jak wiadomo, takie linie wykazują zjawisko „galopowania przewodów”. Polega ono na niskoczęstotliwościowych oscylacjach o znaczącej amplitudzie, które zazwyczaj występują podczas wietrznych i oblodzonych warunków. Te oscylacje mogą być uznane za czynnik zmniejszający niezawodność dostaw energii. Celem tego artykułu jest zwiększenie efektywności wykorzystania napowietrznych linii przesyłowych wysokiego napięcia w warunkach lodu i wiatru poprzez systematyzację rozproszonej informacji i wiedzy, jak również potencjalne odkrycie nowych kierunków badań nad tym zjawiskiem. Analiza obejmuje badanie wyników wieloletnich obserwacji danych statystycznych dotyczących galopowania przewodów w systemach energetycznych. Modele teoretyczne tego zjawiska są rozważane na podstawie równań dynamiki i bilansu energetycznego. Dane eksperymentalne są uzyskiwane poprzez obserwację galopowania przewodów na poligonie testowym z rejestracją parametrów wibracji. Poruszono ogólne kwestie niezawodności napowietrznych linii przesyłowych. Analizowane są wyniki badań statystycznych, obejmujących złożone warunki sprzyjające występowaniu galopowania przewodów, typowe uszkodzenia elementów linii energetycznych oraz ocena spodziewanej intensywności galopowania. Artykuł przedstawia wyniki badań teoretycznych i eksperymentalnych, w tym fizyczne i matematyczne modele galopowania przewodów, warunki niestabilności oblodzonych przewodów w strumieniu wiatru oraz niektóre wyniki eksperymentów przeprowadzonych na poligonie testowym. Zidentyfikowane są metody przeciwdziałania zjawisku „galopowania przewodów”, przedstawiając krótki przegląd i analizę istniejących środków tłumienia tego zjawiska. Zaproponowano zastosowanie najskuteczniejszego i ekonomicznego tłumika dla galopowania przewodów w podziale faz linii energetycznej. Dane przedstawione w artykule ujawniają kluczowe problemy związane z galopowaniem przewodów, istniejące metody ich rozwiązania, a także nowe kierunki badań nad tym zjawiskiem i obiecujące pomysły.
