Abstract :
IN THE CALCULATION of the temperatures attained by underground cable systems, the Kennelly formula for calculating that portion of the temperature rise occurring in the earth was developed in 1893. Various objections since have been raised to the use of this formula, chiefly because it has been believed that it is contradicted by experimental evidence.
