Abstract
This paper analyzes the thermal effects derived from the use of different screen shapes when shielding the magnetic field generated by underground power cables. A parametric analysis is developed to show the influence of the geometrical and the electrical parameters of the shield on the maximum temperature achieved by the power cables in order to analyze the impact of this technique on the ampacity of the line. A 2-D finite element approach is employed in this study to verify the performance of different types of screens (horizontal plate, reverse-U, and H-layout) in terms of shielding efficiency, overheating of the power cables, and operational costs.
