Abstract

Gas-insulated lines (GILs) have been increasingly used as high-current busducts for high-power transmission. Temperature is one of the most important factors affecting the performance and ampacity of GILs. In this paper, an analytical method was proposed to determine the temperature of a three-phase high-current busduct in the form of a single pole GIL. First, power losses in the phase conductors and enclosures were determined analytically with the skin, and proximity effects were taken into account. The determined power losses were used as heat sources in thermal analysis. Considering the natural convection and radiation heat transfer effects, the heat balance equations on the surface of the phase conductors and the screens were established, respectively. Subsequently, the temperature of the phase conductors and the enclosures were determined. The validation of the proposed method was carried out using the finite element method and laboratory measurements.
