The Icing Characteristics of Post Insulators in a Natural Icing Environment by Zhijin Zhang, Jiahui Tu, Yuanpeng Zhang, Xingliang Jiang, Zhenbing Zhu

“…The main conclusions are as follows: (1) the icing type and morphology of post insulators are influenced by meteorological conditions, with more severe icing observed on the windward side. (2) The icing mass and icicle length of the insulator increase nonlinearly with icing time. Specifically, during the glaze icing period from 0 to 8 h, the ice mass on the Type V composite post insulator was 3.89 times greater than that during the 13-to-18 h period. (3) Within the same icing cycle, the icing growth rate on composite post insulators is faster than on porcelain post insulators. (4) Compared to suspension insulators, the sheds of post insulators are more easily bridged by icicles. …”
