Abstract:This paper describes a coupled magnetic eddy-current, fluid and thermal finite-element model to analyze the steady and transient thermal behavior of a three-phase gas-insulated bus bar (GIB). The magnetic eddy-current field is indirectly coupled into the fluid and thermal fields through the power loss density while considering the temperature dependent electrical conductivity. As a new methodology, multiple species transport technique is introduced into the thermal model using computational fluid dynamics (CFD… Show more
