Abstract
The paper presents the method of thermal field analysis in a rectangular busbar taking into account the variable resistivity. The method is based on the analytical solution of the heat conduction equation. The boundary-initial problem was solved using the Duhamel’s theorem. The suitable step response of the system was determined by the separation of variables method. By means of presented method, a stationary and transient thermal field was determined in the rectangular busbar taking into account variable resistivity. The steady-state currents rating as well as the time constants of the busbar in case of variable and average resistivity were also determined. The results obtained was verified using the finite element method.
