Abstract :
A three-dimensional eddy current field model for calculating the eddy current losses in an air insulated bus duct system is proposed. The temperature rises are evaluated using the coupled fluid field and the thermal field model. Good agreement between the computed and test results confirms the proposed methodology is a viable approach to the study of practical system
