Thermal Management in Aluminum Busbar Applications
The integration of advanced thermal management techniques into their busbars has made them a preferred choice for various thermal management applications.
Heat shrink tubing is used to insulate busbars by shrinking the tubing over the conductor using heat. This method provides a tight seal and protection against environmental factors. This kind of sleeve made of composite materials such as radiation cross-linked polyolefin will shrink. The manuscript presents advanced coupled analysis: Maxwell 3D, Transient Thermal and Fluent CFD, at the time of a rated current occurring on the main busbars in the low-voltage switchgear. The simulations were procured in order to aid the design process of such enclosures.
