Scope of activities:

My activities relate to the thermal analysis of power cables. My interests are in the development of new mathematical models for ampacity calculations of power cables installed underground or in air. Improvement of the models described in the international standards IEC 60287, 60853 and 60949 is of special interest.

 

Present activities:

Current research involves analysis of:

  1. Cables in tunnels,
  2. Installed in complex underground arrangements,
  3. Modelling of 3-core submarine cables,
  4. Drying out of soil in the vicinity of loaded power cables,
  5. Improvement in the modelling of power cables in COMSOL.

 

Future activities:

Future activities also involve development of the analytical models for cable rating calculations and their verification using the finite element approaches.
