A technique to determine the parameters of a shielded busbar with a rectangular monolithic bus at steady-state conditions under sinusoidal current is suggested. The resistances, inductances, magnetic inductions, induced screen current, and bus voltage are calculated taking into account the sinusoidal current frequency and bus and screen materials. The developed technique is based on electromagnetic field equations, which can be programmed using the Mathcard software for engineering calculations of the busbar parameters during computer-aided design of busbars. The validity of the technique is corroborated by the satisfactory agreement between the results of resistance and inductance calculations and the results obtained using the Elcut computer simulation program.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
