Wind Tunnel Test on Wind-Induced Aerodynamic Force of Transmission Tower

Abstract:

Wind-induced aerodynamic force is the important parameter for transmission tower design. Based on force balance test, the tower and cross arm of typical 500kV power transmission tower have been investigated in wind tunnel using three wind speeds considering Reynolds effect. The test results show that the shape coefficient keeps the same at different wind speed, which means that Reynolds effect on transmission tower can be ignored. Then, the shape coefficients of tower and cross arm are provided.
