Abstract :
In the present work, we studied the dust deposition characteristics on suspended insulators under the simulated sandstorm conditions in a laboratory. Based on the simulation experiments, the basic dust deposition and distribution characteristics were studied, such as the difference of deposition among sheds at different locations, the difference of deposition between large and small sheds, the relationship between deposition quantity and flow speed of air and dust as well as the relationship between deposition quantity and experimental duration. Our study provides important insights for more advanced studies on this topic in the future.
