Lightning induced disturbances in buried cables - Part I: Theory

In this paper, we present a review of theoretical methods to compute lightning induced currents and voltages on buried cables. The evaluation of such induced disturbances requires the calculation of the electric field produced by lightning along the cable ...

Test results of the ITER PF insert conductor short sample in SULTAN

Pierluigi Bruzzone, Boris Stepanov, Rainer Wesche

A short sample of the NbTi cable-in-conduit conductor (CICC) manufactured for the ITER PF insert coil has been tested in the SULTAN facility at CRPP. The short sample consists of two paired conductor sections, identical except for the sub-cable and outer w ...

The index n of the voltage-current curve, in the characterization and specification of technical superconductors

Pierluigi Bruzzone

The attention of the fusion magnet specialists has been drawn in the last years to the volt-ampere characteristic (VAC) of the large cable-in-conduit conductors (CICC), as early voltage was observed in conductor and model coil tests, far away from the expe ...

Lightning electromagnetic field coupling to overhead transmission line networks and to buried cables

Emanuel Petrache

Lightning-induced voltages in power and communication systems are nowadays one of the main causes of power quality and electromagnetic compatibility. In recent years, due to the increasing demand by customers for good quality in the power supply along with ...

Mitigation of Lightning-Induced Overvoltages in Medium Voltage Distribution Lines by Means of Periodical Grounding of Shielding Wires and of Surge Arresters: Modeling and Experimental Validation

Mario Paolone, Carlo Alberto Nucci, Emanuel Petrache

In this paper, we investigate the effect of periodically-grounded shielding wires and surge arresters on the attenuation of lightning-induced voltages. We discuss the adequacy of the commonly made simplification of assuming the shielding wire at ground pot ...

Lightning-induced voltages on complex distribution systems: models, advanced software tools and experimental validation

Mario Paolone, Emanuel Petrache

The evaluation and the analysis of the lightning electromagnetic pulse (LEMP) response of distribution networks require the availability of accurate models of LEMP-illuminated lines and their implementation into software tools able to calculate lightning-i ...

Development of Insulated Conductive Probes with Platinum Silicide Tips for Atomic Force Microscopy in Cell Biology

Nico de Rooij, Terunobu Akiyama

A microfabrication process of a multifunctional probe is introduced for atomic force microscopy and various electrochemical measurements on biological samples in buffer solution. The silicon nitride probes have a spring constant lower than 0.1 N/m and a co ...

Measurement of lightning-induced currents in an experimental coaxial buried cable

Mario Paolone, Emanuel Petrache

We present in this paper experimental results obtained at the International Center for Lightning Research and Testing (ICLRT), Camp Blanding, Florida, where currents induced by triggered and natural lightning events were measured at one end of a shielded b ...

Numerical Modelling of a HTS Cable

Francesco Grilli, Bertrand Dutoit

The finite element method has been employed in order to simulate the behaviour of a HTS cable for transport current applications. The E-J model includes an anisotropic dependence of the critical current density Jc and power index n on the local magnetic fi ...

A Novel All-Fiber Configuration for a Flexible Polarimetric Current Sensor

Luc Thévenaz, Dario Alasia

This set-up is particularly simple and makes possible the use of a flexible cable that may be plugged to the instrument using connectors for easy field applications. Measurements of AC and DC currents are demonstrated. ...
