Abstract :
A computer program for the analysis of the economic, thermal, and rating characteristics of HPOF underground transmission cables with forced cooling is presented. With this program cable engineers can interactively analyze forced-cooled HPOF cable design alternatives. The program computes cable thermal characteristics and discounted costs so that the impacts of changes in design parameters may be estimated.
