CYMCAP-EMF, Magnetic Fields Module
PSAF Demo Version Demo
Version
The Magnetic Fields Module (EMF) is an optional add-on that can be connected to CYMCAP. Although this module is not directly related to cable thermal rating, it offers convenience to the CYMCAP users. After an ampacity or a temperature steady state simulation the module computes the magnetic flux density at any point on or above the ground of an underground cable installation. The output is a plot (or a table) of magnetic flux density versus position.

CYMCAP Modules
Modeling features include:

  •     Infinite-length thin-wire two-dimensional approach.
  •     Consideration of time-varying currents producing an elliptically
    polarized rotating magnetic vector.
  •     The currents in a three-phase circuit can be unbalanced (in magnitude
    and phase).
  •     All media is assumed homogenous, isotropic and linear.
  •     The induced currents are neglected.
