Abstract

The operation experiences have shown that the large-scale DC magnetic bias caused by DC grounding electrode can be attributed to the uneven surface potential distribution. Here, the Chebyshev polynomial is used to fit the Hankel transform kernel function in order to solve the surface potential distribution for the complex earth model of wide area depth stratification. The adaptive order fitting method of Chebyshev polynomial for kernel function is obtained via shift operation, coefficient expansion and truncation error determination, which greatly reduces the calculation difficulty of surface potential distribution in a large area caused by DC grounding electrode. Compared with the standard grounding calculation software CDEGS, the proposed Chebyshev polynomial approach achieves less than 1V of earth surface potential deviation in range of 1-100 km when the DC grounding current is 5 000 A. Moreover, the order of the Chebyshev polynomial has influence on the solution results, and it is confirmed that the 20th-order Chebyshev polynomial can meet the accuracy requirements for general DC bias risk assessment. The proposed surface potential assessment method based on shifted Chebyshev polynomial provides a basic technical means for the risk assessment of DC bias, which is helpful to reduce the difficulty of DC bias risk assessment for power grid.
