The influence of wind on the audible noise of ultra HVDC transmission line in high altitude area

The corona performance and the electromagnetic environment of the transmission system has become a crucial issue that has been taken into consideration in the line design, and among which audible noise (AN) is one of the most important factors. The wind in the high altitude area is mostly strong, and could greatly influence the AN. This paper, based on the high altitude HDVC test line, studied the characteristics of AN generated by the transmission line, and analyzed the influence of wind velocity and wind direction on the AN lateral profile.
