Abstract
This paper proposes a dynamic iteration method for steady-state corona simulation, featuring adaptive amplitude increase control of the boundary charge density iteration based on electric field fluctuations. Combined with the decoupled solving of the electric potential and charge transport equations, the method enables stable, rapid simulation of 3D corona discharges. Simulation validations on typical rod-type and twin-rod dischargers demonstrate that the proposed method exhibits stable and fast convergence, as well as high efficiency of decoupled solving. Also, the volt-ampere characteristics and the inception voltage obtained by simulation are in good agreement with the measurement. Simulations under typical cross-wind field conditions further confirm the proposed method still maintains good stability and convergence. Additionally, the simulated volt-ampere characteristics agree well with the empirical formulas.
