Abstract

Numerical model of an iced quad-bundled conductor line with new intelligent de-icing equipments is set up by means of ABAQUS software, and simulation method of the de-icing process is numerically carried out. The feasibility of the intelligent de-icing method is verified based on the numerical simulation. Tension failure criterion is employed in the simulation of the failure of the ice, and the user material subroutine VUMAT of ABAQUS software is developed to introduce the constitutive relation of the ice and the deletion of the broken ice elements. Several de-icing scenarios are numerically studied with the variables including opening displacement of the de-icing equipment, the number of installed de-icing equipments on the line and the thickness of the ice covered on the conductors. The obtained numerical results provide a reference for the design and realization of the intelligent de-icing equipment.
