comparative study of simulation of temperature rise in ring main unit

The ring main unit is a group of high-voltage switchgear mounted in a steel metal cabinet or made of assembled spaced ring network power supply unit of electrical equipment. The overall structure of the load switch and conductive circuit consists of the conductive circuit, which includes a number of components comprising the main core of the ring unit. However, due to its compact internal structure, the ring main unit faces challenges in heat dissipation. This can lead to thermal deformation and aging when operating for extended periods in high-temperature environments. These issues not only affect the service life of the unit but also impact its insulating properties, posing safety risks. In particular, equipment damage and electrical accidents become more likely, posing significant safety hazards.
Within different research areas, scholars have conducted a series of studies on the temperature rise of overhead line switchgear and analyzed various factors affecting the temperature distribution1. In Polykrati et al.2, a mathematical model for the estimation of the temperature rise of components installed on the distribution network during a short-circuit fault is presented. The model was applied to the common disconnecting switches of the network, and the characteristics of the results were plotted according to the different forms of the asymmetrical part of the short-circuit current waveform and the initial value of the short-circuit DC current component. Guan et al., on the other hand, have taken into account the contact resistance and electromagnetic repulsion by building an equivalent contact bridge to simulate the contact interface and further analyzed the electromagnetic-thermal coupling field and temperature rise experiment3. In addition, the researchers investigated the temperature field and thermal stress distribution of the dynamic and static contacts inside the ring main unit by finite element simulation, which provided a basis for the study of circuit breaker life4. Finally, Mueller et al. have focused on the geometrical characteristics of heat sinks and evaluated the effects of material selection, total surface area, temperature uniformity, and maximum surface temperature on thermal performance5. These studies provide valuable insights and methods to improve switchgear performance and reliability, reduce temperature rise, and extend equipment life. Wang et al. proposed a MiNET Deep Learning Model (MDLM) in the UPIOT environment with the purpose of detecting fault diagnosis of electrical ring cabinets, which was validated to have an identification accuracy of 99.1%, which is significantly higher than that of other methods6. Lei et al. studied the thermal performance of a GIS busbar in a steady state using the magneto-fluid-thermal coupling analysis method, thereby optimizing the conductor and tank diameter based on the temperature rise simulation results7. Ouerdani et al. used the RMU temperature rise simulation model to determine the temperature rise at critical locations inside it, thereby fixing the duration of the maximum overload for the components inside the RMU accordingly8. Zheng et al. described a conventional rectangular busbar in a model of high-current switchgear by building a two-dimensional model and applying the finite element method (FEM) for electromagnetic field calculations. It enabled them to obtain the distribution of bus conductor current density and power loss. An irregular busbar was designed after considering the effects of proximity effect and skin effect. This irregular busbar design improved the performance of conventional rectangular busbar9.
As for the aspect of using the icepak simulation, Wang et al. carried out a temperature rise simulation through vortex field, airflow field, and temperature field theories and found that the temperature rise of the ring main unit was more serious under natural convection. They successfully reduced the temperature rise level by adding forced air cooling and making improvements to the internal contact structure10. Zhu et al.11 used the icepak to simulate a thermal model in order to compare the effect of the presence of thermal vias on the PCB and the presence of heat sinks on the temperature of the power devices. Finally, the theoretical analysis is compared with the simulation results to verify the correctness of the theoretical analysis. Mao et al.12 studied the temperature and internal airflow distribution under summer operating conditions by thermal simulation based on the CAE software in the icepak simulation. The problem of how to improve the cooling efficiency and control the temperature rise of multiple silver-plated contacts is given, and the temperature and internal airflow contours captured in the simulation will lay the foundation for the design of the cooling scheme for the six silver-plated contacts mounted in the sealing unit. Conversely, in the use of a steady-state thermal module, Zhang13 Modeling methods are discussed for solving the thermal network of a high-pressure bushing using an alternative transient procedure. Test and simulation results are in good agreement with the thermal steady state and transient states of the bushing. The transient results are then used to evaluate the bushing overload capacity. Vaimann et al.14 developed and analyzed an analytical thermal model of a synchronous reluctance motor for predicting the temperature of its different components and the set total parameter thermal network.
With the continuous advancement of research on electrical equipment such as ring main units, conventional temperature rise tests, and production methods are relatively inefficient. Therefore, by utilizing finite element technology combined with offline tests, not only the design cost issues are addressed, but adjustments and optimizations can be promptly made to real-world problems based on simulations. Based on the research progress mentioned above, the use of ANSYS Icepak and Steady-state thermal coupling for comparative analysis is rarely mentioned. Therefore, the protocol describes the mechanism research of finite elements, uses numerical and morphological combinations to establish a finite element temperature rise simulation model for the enclosure, and discusses the finite element temperature rise simulation model based on the results of the two analytical modules by comparing the results of the two simulation modules. Through the comparison between the two simulation modules, we will get the characteristics of the temperature rise trend of the ring main unit and find the most applicable method so as to provide the necessary basis and research ideas for a strategy to mitigate the temperature rise of the ring main unit.

Our research deals with the simulation and analysis of temperature rising of Ring Main Unit equipment. By comparing two temperature analysis, the module, we derived the temperature rising of Ring Main Unit for different scenarios. Aspect was more suited for herd transfer and the studies that summer was better suited for herd distribution.The current method of combining the finite element method with actually experiments, derives the temperature rise more comprehensively. The biggest challenger is to make the simulation results compatible with the experiment and to reduce the error. Currently, the simulation error is mainly reduced by solving the problem multiple times.Our protocol reduce the error of a single solution model that cannot satisfy the temperature rising program or multi-case Ring Main Unit. It can provide a multi-facet solution to a program of temperature rising or electrical equipment. Combined with the variety of finite element method for interpretation.In the future, we will devote ourselves to use analysis and the research of thermal space and straining electrical equipment, caused by temperature rising programs. And we will also focus on the temperature rising program of multiple operating conditions in the future.
