Case Study

A major manufacturer of HV and MV cables

used COMSOL Multiphysics to design a new
cable with improved performance and reliability.
The company used COMSOL Multiphysics to
simulate the effects of different design
parameters, such as the cable geometry, the
materials used, and the operating conditions.
Case Study cont.

The results of the simulation showed that the

new cable design had a significant
improvement in performance over the old
design. The company is now in the process of
manufacturing the new cable and expects to
see a significant improvement in the
performance and reliability of its cables.
