Abstract
A development of the charge simulation technique is presented for treating electric field problems, especially around conductor bundles of EHV transmission lines. The method is based on introducing a known initial set of charges which are deduced from the analysis of a similar but simpler problem. The introduction of these charges reduces the number of simulation charges and thus reduces considerably the computational time. The analysis confirms the importance of the choice of the location of the unknown charges such that any symmetry in the problem is utilized and any ″hidden symmetry″ is avoided. The method is used for the case of bundle-two with smooth and stranded subconductors. The results show a considerable saving in computational time for the same accuracy in comparison with previous methods.
