Abstract | This work continues, begun in [1], consideration of the process of heating cable accompanying electric current. We describe the results of time-dependent solution for the non-stationary heating for single-conductor and twin-core cable. The numerical model takes into account the temperature dependence of the thermophysical properties of the conductor and its specific resistance, as well as the effect of temperature on the insulation of thermal conductivity and heat exchange with an environment. The paper contains a comparison of numerical results with experimental data. |
