Abstract:During magnetic storms, the induced geoelectric fields drive geomagnetically induced currents (GIC) in power transmission networks, railway systems and pipelines, resulting in negative effects on those systems. In the region with complex geological structure, such as coast area, the lateral change of earth conductivity will cause distortion in the distribution of induced geoelectric field. The coast effect is a typical distortion of geoelectric field in the “H polarization” case and it has obvious impacts on GIC. This paper simulated the influence of the “H polarization” on the earth electric field due to magnetic storm. After establishing the earth model with lateral conductivity change, this paper used the finite element method to solve the boundary problem of the induced telluric current field. Thus, the relationship between conductivity lateral change and electric field distortion was discussed based on the numerical results. Additionally, this paper also discussed the variation of GIC in the power grid due to the lateral conductivity change and the distance between substation and the conductivity interface. The method and the results lay a theoretical foundation for the accurate calculation of GIC in the power grid.
