Abstract:Coaxial cables are often used for data-transmission between top-side and down-hole tools over long distances. In term of cost, it is advantageous to use the same cables for power transmission when feasible. However, environmental effects can degrade the performance of cables, which are exposed to hostile conditions. This paper examines the environmental effects on transmission efficiency of coaxial cables when used for the transmission of power to down-hole tools and data acquisition systems. The performance o… Show more
