Overview

Review demonstrates return-stroke velocity depends on energy supply rates for channel conductivity in transmission lines, highlighting key parameters for lightning protection.

Key Points

  • Review the fundamental physical mechanisms of lightning-stroke formation with specific relevance to transmission-line engineering.
  • Conducted a theoretical review evaluating lightning-stroke formation mechanisms.
  • Analyzed the relationship between return-stroke current, head velocity, and the rate of energy input into the lightning channel.
  • Demonstrates that the relationship between return-stroke current and the propagation velocity of the stroke head depends directly on the speed of energy delivery into the channel.
  • Shows that achieving necessary electrical conductivity within the channel limits the rate of return-stroke development.
