Variables Used

Area of Overhead DC Wire - (Measured in Square Meter) - Area of Overhead DC Wire is defined as the cross-sectional area of the wire of an overhead DC supply system.
Power Transmitted - (Measured in Watt) - Power Transmitted is defined as the product of current and voltage phasor in a overhead dc line at the receiving end.
Resistivity - (Measured in Ohm Meter) - Resistivity is the measure of how strongly a material opposes the flow of current through them.
Length of Wire DC - (Measured in Meter) - Length of Wire DC is the total length of the wire from one end to other end.
Line Losses - (Measured in Watt) - Line Losses is defined as the total losses occurring in an Overhead DC line when in use.
Maximum Voltage Overhead DC - (Measured in Volt) - Maximum Voltage Overhead DC is defined as the peak amplitude of the AC voltage supplied to the line or wire.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Power Transmitted: 920 Watt --> 920 Watt No Conversion Required
Resistivity: 1.7E-05 Ohm Meter --> 1.7E-05 Ohm Meter No Conversion Required
Length of Wire DC: 12.7 Meter --> 12.7 Meter No Conversion Required
Line Losses: 0.74 Watt --> 0.74 Watt No Conversion Required
Maximum Voltage Overhead DC: 60.26 Volt --> 60.26 Volt No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

A = (P^2)*ρ*L/(2*P_loss*(V_m^2)) --> (920^2)*1.7E-05*12.7/(2*0.74*(60.26^2))

Evaluating ... ...

A = 0.0340023025181233

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.0340023025181233 Square Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

0.0340023025181233 ≈ 0.034002 Square Meter <-- Area of Overhead DC Wire
