Abstract

The corona characteristic of HVDC tube bus is the main factor taken into account for choosing tube bus of HVDC converter substation. The intension of corona could affect the electromagnetic environment of converter station and generate audible noise. For the HVDC transmission line has long distance, it is inevitable for converter station to built in high humidity area. It is necessary for studying the corona characteristics of converter station bus and choosing the best type of the bus to consider the humidity. By establishing the calculation models of electric field strength along the tube bus surface, the paper computes the influence of humidity on corona inception electric field, high and electrode spacing of tube bus. And gives the high and electrode spacing, at which the tube bus in ±660kV HVDC converter substation will not generate corona.
