2021, 8(S1): 1-9. doi: 10.16516/j.gedi.issn2095-8676.2021.S1.001
Abstract:
  Introduction  Affected by typical micro-topography, the wind speed of overhead transmission lines will increase. This paper aims to study the influence of micro-topography on the force of transmission tower.  Method  To investigate the parameters and the distribution law of topographic factors, we compared topographic factors of two typical mountain topographies for the crest and the escarpment among China, America and Australia codes. The force analysis of transmission towers were carried out with different codes, different route directions and different locations.  Result  The results we obtained demonstrate that the distribution law of topographic factor of the three codes is basically the same, and the degree of influence by slope, horizontal distance and height is different, the force of main member of tower body is the maximum when the transmission line runs along the top of the mountain, the influence of topographic factor on the force of tower is greater than wind speed increased by 10%.  Conclusion  It is suggested that the transmission line should cross the top of the mountain perpendicularly as much as possible, and the influence of topographic factor should be considered for transmission towers located in two typical mountain topographies.

2021, 8(S1): 26-32. doi: 10.16516/j.gedi.issn2095-8676.2021.S1.004
Abstract:
  Introduction  After the ice disaster, in order to ensure the safety and reliability of power supply of the power grid, it is necessary to repair or rebuild the power grid in the disaster-stricken area to meet the requirements of power grid safety and reliability. However, the power grid facilities involved are restricted by external factors and can fully meet the requirements of regulations and specifications. Ice disasters on double-circuit towers will increase the difficulty of power grid repair or reconstruction. In order to minimize the static and dynamic load of the tower after ice disaster, the paper proposed to directly reduce the number of sub-conductors to improve the overall ice resistance of the tower.  Method  In combination with the existing 500 kV double circuit project on the same tower, after an ice disaster occured, one circuit was removed and the ice accident section was bypassed by a new single circuit, and the other circuit was connected to the original double circuit six-circuit cross-arm through each cross-arm with two sub-conductors. Each two cross-arms constituted a loop arrangement to be modified.  Result  The results we obtained demonstrate that this proposed scheme can not only improve the ice resistance of the main inclined material of the tower, but also greatly improve the ice resistance of the cross arm and meet the requirements of the differentiated design of the State Grid.  Conclusion  Two-split conductors with small cross-sections will cause changes in electrical performance. Our data suggests that such changes are considered acceptable in areas with high forest coverage, complex terrain, and poor visibility conditions.

Abstract:
  Introduction  The electricity sales company faces the fluctuation of electricity price in the spot market of the wholesale side and the uncertainty of the demand power of the retail side. In order to balance the benefits and risks, it is necessary to determine a reasonable proportion of electricity purchase in the medium and long-term market and the spot market and the time-of-use electricity price for consumers.  Method  The demand price response curve was used to simulate the contesting of electricity sales companies in the medium and long-term contract market, and a quantitative method of transaction risk loss index based on conditional value at risk (CVaR) was proposed.  Result  The demand response based on virtual power plant is realized through flexible load and distributed power generation, so as to balance the power deviation and the risk of price fluctuation in the spot market. On this basis, a two-level optimization model considering the power purchase strategy of electricity sales companies in the wholesale side market and the revenue of power selling on the retail side is established, and the crisscross optimization algorithm is used for solving the problem.  Conclusion  The simulation results show the effectiveness of the method.
