The application provides a wave process calculation method considering the corrugated aluminum sheath structure of a high-
voltage cable, and the steps include: deducing the inner
radius formula of the corrugated aluminum sheath of the high-
voltage cable according to the geometric characteristics of the corrugated aluminum sheath; using the average geometric
radius technology to equivalently convert the corrugated aluminum sheath into a uniform cylindrical shell; using a sine function to fit the corrugation of the actual corrugated aluminum sheath; solving the
effective length of the equivalent uniform cylindrical shell; deducing the conductor impedance calculation approximate formula based on the
effective length and the equivalent uniform cylindrical shell structure; deducing the
admittance calculation formula based on the actual corrugated aluminum sheath structure of the high-
voltage cable; calculating the cable
wave transmission process characteristic parameters considering the corrugated aluminum sheath
structure based on the above formula; and verifying the calculation results by building a low-
voltage pulse verification test loop. The application is not only suitable for the distributed parameter
equivalent circuit calculation of the corrugated aluminum sheath
power cable of different sizes, voltage grades and lengths, but also can improve the electromagnetic transient
simulation accuracy of the cable.
