Cable accessories are critical components in power transmission systems, where uniform interface pressure distribution and long-term sealing performance directly determine system reliability. Traditional methods often suffer from stress concentration and material aging, leading to interface failure, partial discharge, and condensation-induced short circuits. This study proposes systematic solutions through multi-physics simulation and material innovation.
1. Interface Pressure Distribution Optimization
1. FEM-Driven Design
- 3D electromagnetic-thermal-mechanical coupling model analyzes micro-contact states at silicone rubber/XLPE interfaces.
- Optimized stress cone geometry (e.g., hyperbolic gradient structure) improves pressure uniformity by 40% (simulation data).
2. Smart Material Matching
- Nonlinear hyperelastic composites (e.g., nano-SiO₂ doped LSR) enable adaptive modulus adjustment.
- DMA verification: 62% reduction in creep rate at -40℃~120℃.
2. ong-term Sealing & Anti-Condensation Innovations
1. Multi-stage Sealing Dynamics
- Primary Seal: Molecular chain directional crosslinking (density ≥85%).
- Buffer Layer: Microporous elastomer (5-10μm pores) balances thermal stress.
2. Active Condensation Control
- Moisture-adsorbing/releasing composites (modified zeolite/MOF) integrated in inner walls (response time <15min).
- ASTM E96 verification: After 2000h damp-heat aging, WVTR ≤0.05g/m²·day.
3. Validation & Engineering Applications
1. Accelerated Aging Test
- Per IEC 60502-4: <8% pressure decay after 2000 thermal cycles (vs. >30% control group).
2. Condensation Simulation
- Resistance >10¹²Ω under 45℃→5℃ thermal shock, no tracking observed.
3. Field Case
- Coastal wind farm (salt fog ≥2.8mg/m³): Failure rate reduced from 3.2 to 0 incidents/year.
Precise interface pressure control and molecular-level sealing design extend accessory service life to >40 years, providing critical support for grid security in harsh environments. Future work will integrate fiber optic sensing for real-time monitoring.
