  2. Skin effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skin_effect

    Skin effect has practical consequences in the analysis and design of radio-frequency and microwave circuits, transmission lines (or waveguides), and antennas. It is also important at mains frequencies (50–60 Hz) in AC electric power transmission and distribution systems.

  3. 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 ...

  4. Performance and modelling of AC transmission - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Performance_and_modelling...

    Approximated model for Short Transmission Line Phasor diagram of short transmission line. The transmission lines which have a length less than 60 km are generally referred to as short transmission lines. For its short length, parameters like electrical resistance, impedance and inductance of these short lines are assumed to be lumped.

  5. Litz wire - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Litz_wire

    The skin effect and proximity effect cause conductors to exhibit higher resistance to alternating current (AC) than to direct current (DC). Due to the dual inverse nature of the electromagnetic field, the skin effect dominates at frequencies less than about 2 MHz; at higher frequencies, the proximity effect becomes the dominant force, and Litz wire induces more DC losses than solid wire or ...

  6. Losses in electrical systems - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Losses_in_electrical_systems

    In an electrical or electronic circuit or power system part of the energy in play is dissipated by unwanted effects, including energy lost by unwanted heating of resistive components (electricity is also used for the intention of heating, which is not a loss), the effect of parasitic elements (resistance, capacitance, and inductance), skin effect, losses in the windings and cores of ...

  7. Telegrapher's equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telegrapher's_equations

    Every two-wire or balanced transmission line has an implicit (or in some cases explicit) third wire which is called the shield, sheath, common, earth, or ground. So every two-wire balanced transmission line has two modes which are nominally called the differential mode and common mode. The circuit shown in the bottom diagram only can model the ...

  8. Aluminium-conductor steel-reinforced cable - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aluminium-conductor_steel...

    The skin effect benefits the design, as it causes the current to be concentrated towards the low-resistivity aluminum on the outside of the conductor. To illustrate the impact of the skin effect, the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) standard includes the conductivity of the steel core when calculating the DC and AC resistance ...

  9. Planar transmission line - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Planar_transmission_line

    Planar transmission lines are transmission lines with conductors, or in some cases dielectric (insulating) strips, that are flat, ribbon-shaped lines. They are used to interconnect components on printed circuits and integrated circuits working at microwave frequencies because the planar type fits in well with the manufacturing methods for these ...
