itssmoked, this is a real facility / real project.
Electricpete, to anwser your question, "Are you asking how much heat is generated within the insulation itself or are yo askig how much of I^2*R heat generated in the copper leaves the cable within the room (vs how much is conducted along...
jraef, I have already had someone else point that out to me in one of the other threads and I do apologise. Being a first timer I was unsure where the best spot to post my question was.
I will certainly not do it again.
Thaks for the answer everyone, and apologies for posting this on in several forums. This is the first time on here and wasn't sure where I might get the best response.
I am in need of advice on how to calculate watts losses from insulated power cables. It is easy to calculate the watts loss of the actual conductor based on current and resistance (I squared R), but when the cable is insulated, what are the actual losses through the insulation.
We are trying...
