Optimization the Arrangement of Power Cable Lines in Tunnel

Abstract:

In order to optimized the power cable layout design in tunnel, and improved the operation ability of the cable line, this paper analyzed the cable rating and the short-circuit force under different arrangements. 220kV cable circuit was simulated in the tunnel with conditions of the flat and the trefoil arrangements. The temperature and the rating of the 220kV cable under the condition of the two arrangements were calculated in this paper. The short circuit force peak value and its direction of the cable line under short circuit current of 50kA under the condition of the two arrangements were simulated in this paper. The results show that, the cable rating in flat arrangement is better than in trefoil formation. The value and the direction of the short circuit force in tunnel are better in flat arrangement than in trefoil formation. So it is suggested that the flat arrangement is preferred when conditions permit.
