Series-impedance of underground transmission systems

A general solution for the magnetic field in the soil is developed that satisfies arbitrary boundary conditions on an underground cylindrical surface at a finite depth below an earth/air plane surface. A quasi-steady state hypothesis is assumed. The series impedance of an underground cable with a perfectly conducting sheath is evaluated taking into account skin effect in the soil. The numerical results are compared with F. Pollaczek's (1926) classical solution. >
