In order to improve the accuracy of finite element method for calculating the electric field of insulated rail joint and clarify the influence of temperature on the electric field distribution of the insulated rail joint, taking the intact insulated rail joint and insulated rail joint with different types of defects as research objects, the effect of the electric field analysis types on the electric field distribution of the insulated rail joint calculated by finite element method and the transient electric field distribution of the insulated rail joint were studied. At the same time, the influence of temperature on the electric field distribution of the insulated rail joint and the maximum electric field strength were researched. The results indicate that, except for the steady-state electric field of the insulated rail joint with gap defect, which should be calculated using electrostatic field, the steady-state electric field distribution of the insulated rail joint in other scenarios should be calculated using electric quasi-state field. The electric field calculation of insulated rail joint under transient overvoltage should use an electric quasi-static field, and its electric field should be a time-varying field. When considering the influence of temperature, the electric field of insulated rail joint should adopt an electric quasi-static field. The electric field distribution of the insulated rail joint in different scenarios gradually becomes uniform with increasing temperature, and remains unchanged when the temperature exceeds 70 ℃. In addition, the sudden change in field strength at the gap increases gradually with increasing temperature, and when it is above 70 ℃, the sudden change remains basically unchanged.
