Abstract :
In this paper, an electro-thermal model is proposed to determine the distribution of the temperature rise inside a non-geometry resistive cable termination. The model is used to calculate the temperature distribution along the termination due to the application of both high frequency and pulse voltage waveforms. The model is solved by finite element technique by considering the modes of heat transfer such as conduction, convection and radiation. The simulation results show good agreement with the experimental results.
