S Parthasarathy Retired Professor, Dept of Mechanical of Engineering, MVJ College of Engg, Bangalore, India) ABSTRACT Cable bending models are generally proposed with bending stiffness computations in two extreme ranges namely, a monolithic behaviour with maximum bending stiffness and a loose wire assembly, with a minimum bending stiffness. But the bending stiffness of a cable in a realistic situation, varies as per the coefficient of friction present in the wire interfaces. Since enough theoretical models are not available for this situation, it is proposed to adopt a numerical simulation procedure to evaluate the deflection at various locations of an axially loaded cable under cross load influence and to experimentally verify it,to give a first-hand knowledge of the variation of deflection and hence bending stiffness across a cable length. Both the numerical computation and experimental verification are carried out with a single layered ACSR Racoon Conductor, used in overhead transmission lines. Keywords: Bending stiffness, Conductor, Inter wire friction, Cable. Cite this Article: Shankar. G and Dr.N.

These conductors, while in service are most frequently exposed to wind loads, which induces an additional bending load on the conductors. The conductors exposed to such bending loads over a period of time losses its stiffness and may fail to retain its structural integrity. Many studies related to the prediction of the change in bending stiffness due to the bending loads are carried out but the exact bending 10 editor@iaeme.com
2 Numerical Simulation and experimental Evaluation of Bending deflection of Transmission Line Conductor stiffness reduction can be confirmed only by carrying out experimental tests on such conductors for various load conditions and also at various locations. A few significant research works carried out in this direction include the contribution of McConnell and Zemke (1980), carried out experimental to study the flexural stiffness in ACSR conductors. The bending stiffness computed from the measured deflections along a span, indicated its closeness to the loose wire behaviour of conductors. Goudreau and Cardou (1993) studied the behaviour of an oversized epoxy 1+6 strand under axial load. The equivalent bending stiffness was calculated from the mid span deflection. The gradual change of bending stiffness was not observed with increasing transverse load. Papailiou(1995,1997) proposed a model based on thin rod approximation, in which the individual wire behaviour under tensile and bending loads were studied. The model considered the presence of interlayer friction and slip in the conductor during bending. Jolicoeur (1997) studied the behaviour of multi-layered wire strands under axial and bending loads. Lévesque. F, et al (015) presented experimental data for the deformed shape of two ACSR conductor undergoing vibrations. The study provides data for comparing the numerical model of a vibrating conductor.cheng Z (015) experimentally studied the bending performance of a structural cable. The author reported the limited experimental discussions on bending studies in cables. A series of quasi static bending tests were performed on semi parallel wire cables, stranded ropes and steel strands, to understand the cable bending response. Zang (016) studied the stiffness of a single layered conductor with friction, the author found that the numerical results predicted were consistent with the experimental observation reported in the literature. Khan (018) studied the bending behaviour of axially preloaded multi-layered spiral strands. The theoretical prediction related to contact forces, deformation and bending stiffness were compared with the available experimental data in the literature. In view of the limited experimental studies for predicting the bending response in a transmission line conductor, the present work proposes a numerical simulation and experimental evaluation of the bending stiffness in a conductor as a function of strand bending curvature. The numerical computations are made for an ACSR Racoon conductor of 1+6 wire configuration and are evaluated with elaborate experimental tests under varying axial loads and cross loads.. EXTREME VALUES OF STRAND BENDING STIFFNESS Most of the studies related to the bending stiffness, predict only the extreme bounds of upper and lower bending stiffness. The existence of lower bending stiffness is realised in the complete absence of friction among the wires and all the wires behave as though they are loosely packed and its value is given by, ( EI) min m π = Eid 64 i = 1 4 i where Ei is the modulus of elasticity, di is the diameter of the strand, mis the total number of wires in a conductor. The upper bound on bending stiffness can be obtained by assuming as though the wires were welded together, with infinite friction among the wires and depicting a solid body behaviour, and is given by m π d EI = E d a max + 4 i= 1 16 ( ) 4 i i i i where ai is the perpendicular distance from the neutral axis to the center of wire crosssectional area.

NUMERICAL SIMULATION OF THE BENDING PHENOMENON WITH A TRANSVERSE LOAD The numerical simulation of the bending phenomenon is considered as a function of strand bending curvature. Figure 1 shows a stranded cable subjected to an axial pull (P) and an additional transverse load (Q) applied at the mid span of the test length. The equilibrium equations of the cable can be written as below, by considering the moments at various sections, as denoted by the limiting ranges y EI Py = M V x and Figure.1 Schematic arrangement of cable loading 1 1 x (3) y EI Py = M V x + Q(x L ) 1 1 x (4) where EI is the bending stiffness of the cable, M1and V1 are the moment and force at the left end and L is the span. Equations (3) and (4) have the solution regions of (0 < x < L ) and (L < x < L) respectively. The expressions for the end reaction V 1 and moment M1can be derived as Q V1 = (5) Q 1 cosh λ = λ (6) M1 b sinh b = ( P / EI) 1/ where (7) λ = ( ) 1/ and PL 4EI (8) If λ >>1, the term within the bracket becomes approximately equal to one and hence the Equation (6) becomes M 1 Q = b (9) 1 editor@iaeme.com
4 Numerical Simulation and experimental Evaluation of Bending deflection of Transmission Line Conductor Substituting V1 and M1in Equation (3), the deflection at a point x along the span can be obtained as 3 QL 1 cosh λ y( x) = 3 ( 1 cosh bx) + ( bx sinh bx) 16EIλ sinh λ (10) NUMERICAL RESULTS The numerical computation of deflections(y) at various locations(x) along the span are carried out as a function of cross loads(q),as per Equation(10),for an assumed axial load(p).for each location,the deflection calculations are carried out as per the loose wire behaviour, with minimum stiffness of EI as per Equation (1) and as per the monolithic behaviour with maximum stiffness EI as per Equation().The Conductor sample(acsr Racoon)adopted for this numerical study is as per the specifications in Table 1.

The deflections obtained with the extreme values of stiffness are tabulated for four different locations of 500mm, 750mm, 1000mm and 1500mm, for each cross load in Column 3 and 4 of Table. 4. EXPERIMENTAL TESTS The experimental test setup and measurements were carried out at the vibration laboratory of Central Power Research Institute, Bangalore. A single layered bimetallic conductor used for overhead electrical power transmission was subjected to an axial pretension and a transverse load was applied at the mid span of the conductor specimen fixed between the two end clamps and the mechanical response of the conductor in terms of deflection was measured Experimental setup The experimental setup consisted of a 40-meter span test rig of with end fixtures to support the cable specimen and to exert a pulling force up to 100kN.A double acting hydraulic actuator of 100kN capacity was used to impart the tensile load in the strand. To measure the response of the strand specimen, a load cell type force transducer of 5Ton capacity was used in the axial direction and another load cell of Ton capacity was used in the transverse 13 editor@iaeme.com

Dial gauge setups were used to measure the transverse deflections at various locations along the span of the conductor. Figure shows the general experimental setup and the hydraulic actuator for imparting the axial load is shown in Figure 3.Figure 4and Figure 5 show the end fixture and load cell arrangement for imparting transverse load. Fig : Experimental test setup Fig 3: Double acting hydraulic actuator of 100kN capacity Figure 4 End fixture arrangement Figure 5 Load cell arrangement 4.. Test procedure A bimetallic single layer conductor as shown in Table 1was used to find the bending response. The conductor was initially pre tensioned axially to maintain it in a taut condition and varying cross loads were applied at the mid span of the cable. The conductor spanchosen for testing is around three meter in length. An axial load of 700kg(6860N) was applied and clamped, then the cross loads were applied from49n up to 980 N in increments and the deflections of the cable at 500mm,750mm,1000 and 1500mm were measured using the dial gauge setup fixed vertically at those locations. The maximum axial load applied was restricted to 30% of the breaking load of the ACSR Racoon conductor as per BIS specifications editor@iaeme.com

EXPERIMENTAL MEASUREMENTS The experiment as described above is carried out with a pre tensile load of 6860 N applied to the conductor.

RESULTS AND DISCUSSTIONS The numerical values of deflection obtained at each location, with minimum and maximum stiffness assumptions are compared with the experimentally measured deflections, for each cross load in Table. From the above results it is observed that the measured deflection values are closer to loose wire behaviour, than that of the monolithic one editor@iaeme.com
9 Shankar. G and Dr.N. S Parthasarathy 6. CONCLUSIONS A numerical solution procedure to calculate the vertical deflections at various positions of an axially loaded cable, under a cross load arrangement has been demonstrated. The deflections obtained with two extreme behaviour conditions, namely monolithic and loose wire assembly, are compared with the experimental deflections obtained with an ACSR, single layer, Racoon Conductor. The experimental results are found to lie closer to the loose wire assumption. It is hoped that this study of variation of bending stiffness will enable cable designers to predict the strand deflections at any locations accurately.
