Effect of Elevated Temperature Operation on the Strength of Aluminum Conductors
Author_Institution :

Abstract :
The relationships between "remaining strength", time and temperature for conductors operated at elevated temperatures are presented as empirical models based on elevated temperature test results. The comparison between the remaining strength predicted from the models and the measured remaining strength is shown. Use of the models is explained and examples of their use are presented.
