For the uneven electrical distribution on screening electrode of ultra-high voltage AC bushing
hence often leading to corona and dielectric puncture
the electric field and voltage distribution of ultra-high voltage AC bushing are evaluated with 3D FEM. It is found that the field strength on the upper and lower arcs of the screening electrode gets higher
but on the intermediate region gets lower. By changing the structure parameters of screening electrode
the influences of shape of the electrode on electric field distribution are analyzed
and the optimization objective function is established accordingly. The neural network model is constructed to map the structure parameters of screening electrode on the optimal goal. As a result
the maximum electric field strength decreases by 20%
electric field distribution becomes more uniform
and the flashover voltage of busing is heightened. The structure of the optimized screening electrode is simple and easy to be produced.
