Применение искусственных заряженных облаков для исследования молниезащиты энергетических объектов на моделях

Abstract

Results of the experimental investigations and physical simulation of the processes of lightning affection of the power energy objects and the investigation of its lightning protection effectiveness using artificial charged aerosol clouds are presented. Influence of the characteristics of lightning conductor and phase wire models on the process of their affection by the discharge from charged aerosol has been analyzed. Comparison of the experimental results with the calculated and experimental methods of determination of the power energy object lightning protection has been fulfilled. Recommendations on the improvement of lightning protection of the existing and projecting power energy objects have been proposed.
