30、actors of cable trays (). ITU-T K.47: guard-wire shielding factor (). 6.1 Modelling the problem In many practical situations, there is a transient current injected in a transmission system formed by multiple conductors in parallel. This is the case of a metallic tower struck by lightning, where the

31、current is distributed among the tower structure and the available conductors. As the time-derivative of the lightning current is high, the initial current distribution is determined by the magnetic flux linkages within the conductors. Therefore, if the low time-derivative wave-tail is not of concer

32、n, it is permissible to neglect the resistance of the conductors when assessing the current distribution. Under this assumption, a number of practical problems may be represented by the canonical structure shown in Figure 1, in which two perfectly conducting cylinders of radius r1 and r2 are placed

33、in parallel and submitted to a time-varying current I(t). The problem consists in determining the currents I1(t) and I2(t) of each conductor, based on their dimensions and separation b. The boundary condition required to calculate the current distribution is that the flux linkage in the area between

34、 the two conductors shall be null. This condition comes from the application of Maxwells equation: Rec. ITU-T K.101 (12/2014) 3 AtHlE AL dddd (1) Figure 1 Representation of a transient current being split into two parallel conductors where the integration of the electric field E follows the path L a

35、long the dashed line in Figure 1 and the magnetic field H is integrated in the area A = ab delineated by the dashed rectangle. As the electric field within a perfect conductor is null, the left-hand side of equation (1) is null. Therefore, the integral of the magnetic field time derivative within th

36、e loop area must be null. Consider that the magnetic field has an harmonic time dependency given by: tjHtH exp)( 0 (2) where is the angular frequency and j = (1)1/2 is the imaginary unit. This is not a limitation, as any impulsive signal can be broken down into a number of components of different fr

37、equencies. For each frequency, the integral of the magnetic field in the area between the conductors must be null. This means that the magnetic flux generated by the current I1 in the dashed loop must be equal to the magnetic flux generated by the current I2, as the corresponding magnetic fields hav

38、e opposite directions. This condition is expressed by: 1221d2d2 21 rbrrbrxxIaxxIa (3) Note that the integration limits are b r2 and b r1 because, due to the skin effect, the magnetic field within perfect conductors is null. A physical interpretation of equation (3) is that the smaller conductor 2 ha

39、s a larger area to integrate the magnetic field, so that a lower current I2 is necessary to generate the same field that is generated by the current I1. Solving equation (3) gives: 212121 lnln r rbIr rbI (4) The total current is given by: 21 III (5) Defining the shielding factor () as the fraction o

40、f the total current I that is left in conductor 1 after the placement of conductor 2, gives: 4 Rec. ITU-T K.101 (12/2014) II1 (6) Inserting equation (5) into equation (4) and rearranging gives: 21 212 1 lnln rr rbrbr rb(7) In the situations where b r1 and b r2, equation (7) can be simplified as: 212

41、2lnln rr brb (8) 6.2 Guard-wire A common protection of buried cables against lightning flashes is the installation of a guard-wire above the cable, as shown in Figure 2. Besides protecting the cable from being directly struck by lightning (see ITU-T K.47), a guard-wire regularly bonded to the cable

42、metallic sheath also diverts to earth part of the lightning current of the cable screen. The model described in clause 6.1 can be applied to this situation, as the two conductors are in parallel. Making reference to Figure 2, Equation (8) can be rewritten as: gcg rrdrd 2lnln (9) where rg is the guar

43、d-wire radius, rc is the telecommunication cable radius, and d is the distance between these conductors. For example, consider a guard-wire with radius rg = 3 mm placed in parallel with a buried cable with rc = 10 mm metallic sheath and bonded to it at regular intervals. The distance between the two

44、 conductors is d = 300 mm. Equation (9) provides the shielding factor = 0.58. If the cable of Figure 2 is connected to a structure (e.g., a telecommunication tower) that is struck by lightning, the cable metallic sheath will carry 58 per cent of the total current, while the guard-wire will carry the

45、 remaining 42 per cent. The reduction of the lightning current in the cable may have a significant effect on the cable protection, as described in ITU-T K.47. Figure 2 Guard-wire above a telecommunication cable 6.3 Telecommunication towers The model developed in clause 6.2 may be used to assess the

46、current distribution on towers struck by lightning. In this case, the relevant shielding factor is related to the fraction of the total lightning current that flows through the cable feeders. This clause shows some examples that are good approximations to common tower structures, where the shielding

47、 factor provided by the tower is designated T to be in line with ITU-T K.56 and ITU-T K.97. Rec. ITU-T K.101 (12/2014) 5 6.3.1 Tubular tower If telecom cables are placed inside a tubular tower, the total lightning current flows through the tower and no current flows through the cable, so that T = 0.

48、 Of course, this is an approximation that neglects the tower resistance. Otherwise, a more detailed calculation is needed, which takes into account the tower resistance. In this case, the cables are affected by the electric field developed along the internal surface of the tower. This electric field

49、 is given by the product of the internal surface impedance of the tower and the current in the tower. If telecom cables are placed outside the tower, the distribution of current is determined by equations (7) or (8), which are rewritten here as equations (10) and (11), with the tower radius as rt, the conductor radius as rc, and the distance between the t
