(author)The thermal behavior of medium voltage dc cables can find useful applications for efficient and capacity enhanced operation in cities as well as compact power transmission on all electric ships. Concepts such as dynamic current and voltage rating, difference in thermal proximity in ac and dc operation, pulsed load application and thermal...conference paper 2018

Shekhar, A. (author), Feng, Xianyong (author), Gattozzi, Angelo (author), Hebner, Robert E. (author), Wardell, Douglas (author), Strank, Shannon (author), Mor, A. R. (author), Ramirez Elizondo, L.M. (author), Bauer, P. (author)A scientific consensus is emerging on the benefits of direct current (DC) distribution in medium voltage (MV) power systems of ships and cities. At least 50% space savings and increased power transfer capacity are estimated with enhanced voltage DC operation of electric cables. The goal of this research is to contribute to developing the...journal article 2017

Shekhar, A. (author), Kontos, E. (author), Ramirez Elizondo, L.M. (author), Mor, A. R. (author), Bauer, P. (author)It is anticipated that with the thrust towards use of clean energy resources such as electric vehicles, future distribution grids will face a steep increase in power demand, forcing the utility operators to invest in enhancing the power delivering capacity of the grid infrastructure. It is identified that the critical 5–20 km medium voltage (MV)...journal article 2017
