Hurricane Risk Assessment of Power Distribution Systems: Effects of Wind Direction
This paper presents a framework for the risk assessment of urban power distribution systems under hurricane hazard, focusing on the effects that both line orientation and hurricane time history have on the overall risk assessment. In the proposed methodology, the necessary steps to assess risk (hazard, exposure, vulnerability) are presented. Wind hazard is briefly described considering hurricane events as the basis for the analysis of both wind speed and wind direction. The structural vulnerability of wood poles is computed based on the angle of attack of the wind load and the module of rupture of the pole; these results are used to define the damage probability distribution. Lastly, a case study of the expected losses computed with a probabilistic risk analysis for the power distribution network of Cancun, Mexico, is presented, showcasing both the applicability of the methodology to city-wide networks and the importance of wind direction on the financial risk assessment of distribution networks.
