  • Abstract
    The paper examines the relationship between heat flux and sheath temperature for closely spaced underground power transmission systems using both a numerical and an experimental analog approach. The closely spaced condition tends to occur with the recently developed high voltage gas insulated conductors and it is shown that the traditional method of calculation yields sheath temperatures which can be too high by up to 25%.
