Volume of Conductor Material (DC 3-Wire) Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Volume of Conductor = ((2.5)*2)*(Current Overhead DC^2)*Resistivity*(Length of Wire DC^2)/Line Losses
V = ((2.5)*2)*(I^2)*ρ*(L^2)/P_loss
This formula uses 5 Variables

Variables Used

Volume of Conductor - (Measured in Cubic Meter) - Volume of Conductor is the total volume of the material used to make the conductor of an overhead dc line.
Current Overhead DC - (Measured in Ampere) - Current Overhead DC is defined as the current flowing through the overhead ac supply wire.
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.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Current Overhead DC: 3.1 Ampere --> 3.1 Ampere 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

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

V = ((2.5)*2)*(I^2)*ρ*(L^2)/P_loss --> ((2.5)*2)*(3.1^2)*1.7E-05*(12.7^2)/0.74

Evaluating ... ...

V = 0.178040184459459

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.178040184459459 Cubic Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

0.178040184459459 ≈ 0.17804 Cubic Meter <-- Volume of Conductor
