Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The optimal operation of high-voltage underground power cables is crucial for powering our communities, and it hinges on the intricate dynamics of insulation temperature around the conductor, primarily influenced by joule heating. This temperature responsiveness is further molded by seasonal and diurnal fluctuations in power demand, as well as the moisture content in the surrounding soil. Past research concentrated on theoretical analyses and experiments under dry conditions, but our study expands this scope. Through extensive laboratory tests exploring static and cyclic thermal loads in both dry and saturated sand environments, we uncovered valuable insights. Cyclic thermal loads in dry sand demonstrated a significant thermal charging effect, especially with shorter relaxation times. In static thermal loading, utilizing saturated sand enhanced heat dissipation due to higher thermal conductivity. However, it also revealed a noteworthy observation: a robust convection cell formed after three days of continuous heating, presenting challenges for cables under crop fields despite facilitating efficient cooling. Highlighting the importance of high-voltage power cable infrastructure, our study delves into the critical intersection between infrastructure and the underground soil. Understanding these interactions becomes imperative for the sustainable development of clean energy initiatives. As the world transitions to cleaner energy practices, optimizing the performance of underground power cable systems becomes pivotal in realizing their full potential and aligning with broader clean energy goals. This research contributes essential knowledge to enhance the safety, efficiency, and sustainability of high-voltage underground power cable systems in support of a cleaner and more sustainable energy future.
