Abstract

An improved high electrical current conductive marine sweep cable particularly for use in minesweeping application. The cable includes an elongated flotation core (15), which may include an axial tensile member (12), electrical conductors (13) with thin insulation (14) that are juxtaposed to the outer surface of the core, and an outer jacket (16) surrounding the associated insulated conductors and core. The cable is designed to transfer heat generated by the high current to the ambient seawater as it is pulled along the water surface in order to prevent cable temperature from rising above a preselected maximum value and causing degradation of the cable insulation. This design includes thin insulation surrounding each conductor, which provides high thermal conductivity therethrough, and openings in the outer jacket, which permits seawater to enter the jacket radially and thus promote cooling.

Description
High-Current Sweep Cable
Technical Field
This invention relates to marine cables and in particular to marine sweep cables.
Background Art
In marine applications such as minesweeping, it is desirable to conduct high amperage electrical cur¬ rents through a sweep cable being dragged through the water. The I2R heating effect resulting from such high amperage currents causes degradation of the in¬ sulation of the electrical conductors and stands as a barrier to improved minesweeping operation requiring substantially higher currents than those which the present minesweeping' cables are capable of handling.
Such sweep cables additionally* must be buoyant so as to have a density of less than about 0.95, while resisting tensile stresses. Further, it is necessary to avoid abrasion of the outer surface of the cables as may result from dragging of the cables.
It is further necessary to provide high electri¬ cal resistance between the electrical conducting ele¬ ments and the surrounding seawater.
It is further necessary to minimize the size of the cable and preferably provide such a sweep cable having a diameter of no more than 4 inches.
While increasing the diameter of the individual electrical conductors serves to lower the resistance and, thus, I2R heating effect, constraints of buoy- ancy and cable diameter, as discussed above, have made this approach generally ineffective.
Another approach would be to increase the thermal conductivity while decreasing the thickness of the
OMPI cladding or sheathing of the cable. The abrasion problem, however, places severe constraint on this approach.
Another possible approach is to provide the elec¬ trical conductor formed of materials having lower electrical resistance per unit weight. One such can¬ didate material is a light, highly conductive polymer, such as polyacetylene. However, such currently avail¬ able materials are relatively thermally unstable and present difficulties in mechanical processing thereof in the manufacture of the cable.
Disclosure of Invention
The present invention comprehends an improved high electrical current conductive marine sweep cable wherein a thin polymeric insulative coating is pro¬ vided about the electrical conductor wires to provide high thermal conductance and high electrical resis¬ tance. A thicker, more abrasion-resistant jacket is provided about the associated insulated conductors and an internal core to protect the conductors from abrasion.
Means are provided for conducting ambient seawater through the jacket so as to cool the insulated wires by direct thermal transfer with the seawater, thereby permitting substantially increased amperage in the cable without degradation of insulation.
More specifically, the invention comprehends pro¬ viding such a marine cable including an elongated flo¬ tation core defining an outer surface, longitudinally extending electrical conductors juxtaposed to the sur¬ face, insulation means for electrically insulating the conductors, and means for preventing abrasion of the insulation comprising a protective outer jacket sur¬ rounding the associated insulated conductors and core and means for conducting seawater radially through the
OMH jacket for effecting heat transfer between the conduc¬ tors and the ambient seawater, the cable having an overall capability of heat transfer to the ambient seawater at a preselected maximum electrical current flow through the conductors preselected to prevent the I2R induced temperature increase in the conductors and insulation from exceeding a preselected value causing degradation of the insulation.
The cable preferably has an overall density of less than about 0.95.
In the illustrated embodiment, the jacket is formed of a porous, synthetic resin material.
The invention, comprehends the provision of the jacket in the form of a mesh, and illustratively, may comprise a mesh constricted about the assembled con¬ ductive wires and core.
The invention comprehends that the means for conducting seawater into thermal transfer association with the insulated conductors comprise openings in the jacket of sufficient cross-sectional size to per¬ mit flow of the ambient seawater therethrough suitably to effect the desired minimization of the temperature increase.
The size of the openings is further correlated with the requirement of abrasion resistance of the out¬ er jacket, and in the illustrated embodiment, the open¬ ings have a size of at least approximately 1mm, and no greater than approximately 4mm.
The jacket preferably comprises a thick abrasion- resistant, protective covering.
The insulation of the conductors preferably com¬ prises a thin, electrically insulative covering of the wires providing for high thermal transmission there¬ through in transferring heat from the conductors to the ambient seawater. One excellent example of material for use as the outer jacket comprises a high molecular weight poly- olefin net.
The invention broadly comprehends the separation of the means for effecting electrical insulation of the conductors and the means for effecting abrasion resistance of the cable into separate structural com¬ ponents preselected for maximum thermal transfer effi¬ ciency and abrasion resistance of the cable. Thus, the improved cable structure of the present invention is extremely simple and economical of con¬ struction while yet providing substantial increase in the electrical current capabilities thereof within the parameters established for uses such as marine sweep cable uses.
Brief Description of the Drawing
Other features and advantages of the invention will be apparent from the following description taken in connection with the drawing wherein: FIGURE 1 is a broken perspective view of a sweep cable embodying the invention; and
FIGURE 2 is a fragmentary perspective view thereof.
Best Mode for Carrying Out the Invention
In the illustrative embodiment of the invention as disclosed in the drawing, a cable generally desig¬ nated 10 is shown to comprise a high electrical cur¬ rent conductive marine cable having end terminals 18 advantageously adapted for use such as in minesweeping and the like. The cable preferably comprises a buoyant cable having an overall density of less than 1, and prefer¬ ably less than 0.95. For use in minesweeping applica¬ tions, the cable preferably has an outside diameter of no greater than approximately 4 inches. The cable preferably is arranged to carry maxi¬ mum current in ambient seawater at temperatures up to approximately 85βF., while remaining flexible under temperatures as low as approximately -37°C. , so as to permit reeling of the cable onto conventional mine¬ sweeper drums of 72" diameter. The cable preferably has a minimum breaking tension of at least 15,000 lbs., the capability of withstanding, without damage, 3,000 lbs. of compressional force between two flat plates 6 inches in length placed at diametrically opposite sides thereof.
As shown in the drawing, cable 10 includes an inner flotation core 11 which may be provided with an axial tensile member 12 illustratively comprising a steel or nylon cable providing desired longitudinal strength of the cable.
Electrical conductors 13 provided with individual insulation sheaths 14 are spirally wrapped about the outer surface 15 of core 11, and an outer jacket 16 is provided about the assembled core and insulated con¬ ductors. Conventional terminal lugs T are provided at opposite ends of the cable in electrically connected association with the conductors.
Core 11 is formed of a suitable lightweight mater- ial, such as synthetic resin foam. In the illustrated embodiment, the outer surface portion 15 is resistant to degradation by subjection to seawater. Such resis¬ tance may be obtained by suitable selection of the foam core material or by suitable treatment of the outer portion thereof in a conventional manner as well- known to those skilled in the art.
The invention comprehends that the insulation 14 comprise a thin polymeric coating about the individual wire conductors 13 so as to provide high thermal con- ductance therethrough. The insulation is preselected to have high electrical resistance and excellent
am examples of such insulation material are polyolefin and polytetrafluorethylene.
As indicated briefly above, the invention compre¬ hends the provision in jacket 16 of means for conduct- ing ambient seawater radially therethrough for effect¬ ing heat transfer between the electrical conductors and the ambient seawater so as to maintain the temper¬ ature rise of the conductors and insulation resulting from the I2R losses at a preselected low value for pre- venting damage to the insulation and maintain long life of the cable. Illustratively, where the insulation comprises polyolefin or polytetrafluoroethylene syn¬ thetic resin, it has been found desirable to provide sufficient heat transfer from the electrical conductors to the ambient seawater to maintain a temperature dif¬ ferential of no greater than approximately 50βF.
The invention comprehends the provision of the seawater conducting means"in the form of openings 17 through the jacket of sufficiently small size so as to permit maintained abrasion resistance characteristics of the jacket, while yet of sufficiently large size to permit free flow of the ambient seawater therethrough to provide effective cooling of the electrical conduc¬ tors and the desired maintenance of the temperature increase therein below the preselected desired differ¬ ential temperature. In the illustrated embodiment, the openings through the jacket preferably have a cross-sectional size in the range of approximately 1 to 4mm. The openings 17 are uniformly distributed in the jacket, as illustrated in the drawing, so as to pro¬ vide uniform heat transfer throughout the length of the cable. - - '
In the illustrated embodiment, the jacket com- prises a thick sheath provided with perforations form¬ ing the openings 17. Alternatively, the illustrated
OMPI cable 10 jacket 16 may comprise a net or mesh of syn¬ thetic resin fibers, such as Vexar®, manufactured by E. I. duPont deNemours & Co. , comprising High molecu¬ lar weight polyolefin fibers. Further alternatively, the jacket, or net, 16 may be formed of nylon or other suitable polya ide synthetic resin.
Industrial Applicability
As indicated above, the cable 10 is advantageous¬ ly adapted for high-current marine cable use, such as minesweeping use.
The electrical conductors may comprise conven¬ tional aluminum conductors as a result of the improved heat transfer therefrom to the ambient seawater and thereby minimizing the I2R temperature rise caused by the high-current flow therethrough. Thus, the cable is advantageously adapted for carrying current sub¬ stantially higher-than the currents which the present known minesweeping cable of this type are capable of carrying. It has been found that notwithstanding an in¬ crease in the surface roughness of the cable, such a cable having an arbitrary length of 450 feet moving through the seawater at the conventional minesweeping speed has no substantial increase in drag force re- quired.
The cable has a dielectric strength of approxi¬ mately 2500 volts at 60 Hz-rms, with an insulation resistance of greater than 1 megohm with 500V dc ap¬ plied for one minute thereacross. Thus, the cable is capable of meeting all conven¬ tional requirements for minesweeping use, while yet providing a substantial improvement in the current carrying capabilities thereof.
The foregoing disclosure of specific embodiments is illustrative of the broad inventive concepts compre¬ hended by the invention.
