Abstract
This paper introduces a new mathematical procedure for the calculation of power cable ampacities in the case of water-cooled circuits. Both, internal and external cooling installations are considered. The algorithm permits a non-iterative calculation of the water temperature and the temperature-dependent losses along the cooling length of the cables, evaluation of the heat absorbed and emitted by the cooling pipes as well as the effect of the water flow on the cable conductor temperature. Numerical examples show the effect of the direct and the indirect cooling on the ampacity of a 230 kV XLPE cable circuit.
