@ARTICLE{Bellan_D._Mechanical-Stress_2014, author={Bellan, D.}, volume={vol. 63}, number={No 4 December}, journal={Archives of Electrical Engineering}, pages={579-590}, howpublished={online}, year={2014}, publisher={Polish Academy of Sciences}, abstract={Modern electrical-power systems are often exploited for transmitting highfrequency carrier signals for communications purposes. Series-connected air-core coils represent the fundamental component allowing such applications by providing a proper filtering in the frequency domain. They must be designed, however, to withstand also the line short-circuit current. When a high-magnitude current flows through a coil, strong mechanical stresses are produced within the conductor, leading to possible damage of the coil. In this paper, an approximate analytical model is derived for the relationship between the maximum mechanical stress and the electrical/geometrical parameters of the coil. Such a model provides the guidelines for a fast and safe coil design, whereas numerical simulations are only needed for the design refinement. The presented approach can be extended to other applications such as, for example, the mechanical stress resulting from the inrush currents in the coils of power transformers.}, type={Artykuły / Articles}, title={Mechanical-Stress Analytical Modeling for the Design of Coils in Power Applications}, URL={http://www.journals.pan.pl/Content/85000/PDF/04_paper.pdf}, doi={10.2478/aee-2014-0039}, keywords={coils, mechanical stress, analytical modeling, line traps, PLC}, }
