MODELLING AND ANALYSIS OF FUNCTIONALLY

GRADED MATERIAL USED IN GAS INSULATED

SUB-STATION FOR THREE PHASE BUS DUCT

CHAPTER-III

The reliability of power transmission and the introduction of

higher voltages to the center of big cities have been the two key

features in the history of GIS. Coping with the requirement in the

power systems, three-phase enclosure type GIS has been developed as

a practical means to realize a GIS with higher reliability in more

compact size. A Three- phase enclosure-type Gas Insulated Bus (GIB)

has widely been applied to minimize the installation space of a sub-

station. Three phase enclosure type GIS is about 65% in area, about

70% in volume, and about 90% in weight in comparison with single

phase type GIS below 145kV[116]. The number of enclosures,

component devices and sealed sections are about one-third of single-

phase type. The compactness makes it possible to transport a unit or

a bay or GIS in full assembly to minimize on-site works. This feature

makes a three-phase enclosure type GIS to be highly reliable.

Compactness, reduction of the number of parts and simple

construction on-site promotes the economy of the GIS.

These days, electric power equipment tends to be compact and be

operated under high voltage. In the equipment, the solid insulators

play the most critical role for electrical insulation. To improve the

insulation performance of the solid insulators, there is a need to

control electric field distribution around the solid insulators. However,

conventional techniques for the control of electric field lead to the

complicated structure of insulators and increase the manufacturing

cost. Then, it is necessary to propose a new concept on insulators

while keeping their simple structure and configurations. In the

optimization process, permittivity distribution of the FGM insulator is

sequentially modified for minimizing the electric field stress in and

around FGM insulators.

In the present work Electric Field is obtained by applying FEM

on FGM type spacer for GIS under 650kV switching over voltages

(standard maximum voltage that may occur for a 145kV class of GIS).

A three phase bus duct with aluminum enclosure, aluminum

conductor and different insulator shapes are modeled as shown in

Figs(3.2-3.7) in a two dimensional axis. The dimensional details for

three phase GIB are Thickness of the enclosure is 6.4mm, outer

diameter of enclosure is 508mm, outer diameter of conductor is

89mm, conductor thickness is 12.7mm and filled with SF6 gas. The

analysis is done with various types of spacers as shown in Fig. (3.1).

In type A spacer, the value of the relative permittivity εr = 6 is

constant, where as for type B spacer, the corresponding value of the

permittivity εr = 3 right from high voltage electrode to enclosure. In

type C spacer, the value of relative permittivity varies linearly from 9

to 3. In type D spacer, the value of relative permittivity varies linearly

from 9 to 3 in a 50 percent radial distance and then it becomes

constant thereafter. The concept of Finite Element Method (FEM) &

Functionally Graded Material (FGM) has been discussed in previous

chapter. Below, six different modeling have been discussed, they are

[81].

1. Bulb-shape insulator

2. Post type insulator

3. Rib-shape insulator

4. V-shape insulator

5. Delta- shape insulator

6. Post inside insulator

For all the above mentioned models fig(3.2 to 3.7), four types of

materials are applied fig(3.1) and the electrical potential and electric

field stresses are plotted along the surface of insulator enscapulating

the conductor along X and Y-axis fig(3.8 to 3.73)

3.9 SUMMARY

In this chapter, a complex three phase common enclosure

system is considered for insulation studies. The critical electrical

stress on surface of three phase have been estimated by using

different shapes of insulators. The estimation and reduction of Electric

Stress in Gas Insulated Systems is one of the important factors to

maintain insulating properties of spacers. In the proposed work, the

estimation and reduction of Electric stress on the surface of electrode

has been verified. In order to verify the effect of shape of spacer on

surface field, various insulator shapes like Bulb shape Insulator, Post

shape Insulator, Rib shape insulator, V shape Insulator, Delta shape

Insulator and Bulb inside shape Insulator have been considered for

numerical simulation. In order to verify the effect of Functionally

Graded Insulating material, the surface field was estimated for various

materials.

From the results, the following conclusions have been drawn.

A typical three phase GIS models have considered for numerical

simulation. The results obtained from the single phase GIS model are

summarized as follows:
