The Influence of Earth Thermal Conductivity on Temperature Profile of 110 kV Electric Power Cable System
Published by Janusz TYKOCKI, The State College of Computer Science and Business Administration in Lomza Abstract. The paper presents the conductivity of the ground effect on the distribution of temperature field in three-phase high-voltage cables, 64/110 kV, depending on the depth of their arrangement in the ground. The simulation uses the finite element method FEM.Continue reading “The Influence of Earth Thermal Conductivity on Temperature Profile of 110 kV Electric Power Cable System”
