Influence of the screen thickness on the total magnetic field of a double-pole bifilar high-current busduct

In the paper shown the impact of the screen thickness on the total magnetic field of a double-pole bifilar line in the screen and its immediate vicinity. The resultant magnetic field in the high-current busduct of this type has two components of different amplitudes and initial phases. As a consequence this field is elliptical. This phenomenon has been described with the formulas relevant to the relative values of the field and the parameters allowing the frequency, conductivity, and the cross-section dimensions of screen. Into account was taken skin, internal and external proximity effects. These phenomena have a strong impact on the magnetic field in the environment of two-conductor shielded highcurrent busduct and should be taken into consideration also for the industrial frequency of phase currents.
