Abstract :
We discuss the application of a homogeneous Dirichlet boundary condition in the finite element analysis of power cables. In particular, after theoretical derivation and numerical tests, we apply the boundary condition in the analysis of underground pipe-type cables. We compare the numerical results with measurement data for validation
