Thermal Modelling and Analysis of High-Voltage Insulated Power Cables Under Transient Loads

摘要

This article presents a simple thermal model for transient analysis of high-voltage underground power cables based on proper ladder diagram at MATLAB-Simulink software under various operating conditions for engineering students. Available commercial programs created with commercial worries are not suitable for students during the learning process, which involve different applications on power cable analysis. The model gives an opportunity for students to solve the often-faced transient problems in utilities. The transient model of the underground power cable system using the analytic procedures based on IEC60853 standards is presented with an example solution of the 154 kV power cable in service in Turkish transmission system in this article.
