In order to meet the growing demand for electricity, the construction of UHVDC project has vigorously carried out. With the improvement of voltage level, the cross-section of conductor also increases. For large cross-section conductor, the number of steel and aluminum single wires and layers of the conductor are large, and the internal structure is very complex. It has been proved that there is a temperature difference in the radial direction of the conductor due to the contact heat transfer between steel and aluminum based on previous studies. However, most studies are focused on normal conductors, not large cross-section conductors. Therefore, in this paper, the geometric model and temperature calculation model for 1250mm 2 large cross-section ACSR conductor, which is widely used in UHVDC, were established. Simulation of conductor temperature distribution was carried out, and the influence of wind velocity, environment temperature and current on radial temperature difference was analyzed. The results show that, with the increase of wind velocity and the decrease of current, the radial temperature difference of conductor decreases gradually, while the environment temperature has little influence on the radial temperature difference.
