Sulfur hexafluoride (SF6) is an excellent insulating gas that is widely used in substations. However, it poses a threat to worker safety in the event of a leakage. Therefore, it is crucial to construct an accurate early-warning detection system for leaks to ensure the safe operation of substations. In this study, taking a substation as an example, the key parameters affecting SF6 gas diffusion were analyzed by novel numerical simulation model. On this basis, combined with the finite volume method, different leakage scenarios are simulated. Under different leakage conditions, SF6 could accumulate significantly on the ground. Its volume concentration could exceed 1000 ppm, and the duration of the high concentration state could be longer than in the horizontal leakage scenario. The method proposed in this study can effectively reduce the impact of leakage accidents, and provide a theoretical basis for the early monitoring and detection of SF6 leakage.
