The invention discloses a
power cable intermediate
joint temperature calculating method, and belongs to the technical field of cable monitoring. The method comprises the following steps: A, consulting an IEC60287 standard, obtaining correlation parameters needed for calculating the current-
carrying capacity of a cable, a current-
carrying capacity load current value I3 of the load, a body
skin temperature measuring value theta 2' of the cable, and an ambient temperature theta 0; B, obtaining a correction coefficient k, and obtaining a correction formula; C, according to correlation parameters, introducing the I3 into the correction formula, and inversely calculating a conductor temperature rise
delta theta higher than the ambient temperature; D, according to the theta 2' and the
delta theta, solving a body conductor temperature theta1' of the cable; and E, according to the ambient temperature theta 0 and the body conductor temperature theta 1', solving a joint
skin temperature theta 2 and a joint conductor temperature theta 1 by use of a
joint temperature calculation formula. According to the invention, the correction coefficient k is introduced so that the precision of calculating the current-
carrying capacity of the cable by means of the IEC 60287 standard is improved. The intermediate
joint temperature calculation method is also brought forward, and the method can accurately calculate the joint conductor temperature and the joint
skin temperature, facilitates real-time monitoring of the intermediate joint and well supplements the IEC 60287 standard.
