  2. Skin effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skin_effect

    Most discussions of coaxial transmission lines assume they will be used for radio frequencies, so equations are supplied corresponding only to the latter case. As skin effect increases, the currents are concentrated near the outside the inner conductor (r = a) and the inside of the shield (r = b). Since there is essentially no current deeper in ...

  3. Corona discharge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corona_discharge

    Corona discharges on the 380kV overhead power line over the Albula Pass (Switzerland) in foggy weather conditions (30 second long exposure) Coronas can generate audible and radio-frequency noise, particularly near electric power transmission lines. Therefore, power transmission equipment is designed to minimize the formation of corona discharge.

  4. High-voltage direct current - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-voltage_direct_current

    Long distance HVDC lines carrying hydroelectricity from Canada's Nelson River to this converter station where it is converted to AC for use in southern Manitoba's grid. A high-voltage direct current (HVDC) electric power transmission system uses direct current (DC) for electric power transmission, in contrast with the more common alternating current (AC) transmission systems.

  5. Wheeler incremental inductance rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wheeler_Incremental...

    The incremental inductance rule, attributed to Harold Alden Wheeler [1] by Gupta [2]: 101 and others [3]: 80 is a formula used to compute skin effect resistance and internal inductance in parallel transmission lines when the frequency is high enough that the skin effect is fully developed. Wheeler's concept is that the internal inductance of a ...

  6. Transmission line - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transmission_line

    They were developed by Oliver Heaviside who created the transmission line model, and are based on Maxwell's equations. Schematic representation of the elementary component of a transmission line. The transmission line model is an example of the distributed-element model. It represents the transmission line as an infinite series of two-port ...

  7. Litz wire - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Litz_wire

    Litz wire reduces the effect of a resistance increase in AC compared to resitance in direct current (DC), ohmic losses to heat, of wire that takes place at AC frequencies due to the skin effect and introduces small additional losses via the magnetic proximity effect.

  9. Tesla coil - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tesla_coil

    [72] [73] Although skin effect limits currents of Tesla coil frequencies to the outer fraction of a millimeter in metal conductors, the skin depth of the current in body tissue is much deeper due to its higher resistivity. The depth of penetration of currents of Tesla frequency (0.1 – 1 MHz) in human tissues is roughly 24–72 centimeters (9 ...
