Abstract:The safe operation of underground power cables is limited by the temperature of insulation around the conductor which heats up due to joule heating. The insulation temperature depends on the seasonal and diurnal power demand and variations in the surrounding soil’s moisture content. The previous scientific investigations are limited to theoretical and numerical analyses for cyclic loads and experimental studies for only dry conditions with static thermal loads. In this study, a series of large-scale laboratory… Show more
