functioncomputeGMR

This function computes the geometric mean radius of a cable with 1 to 4 conductors

Information

This function computes the Geometric Mean Radius (GMR) of a cable.

The GMR is computed as follow, depending on the number of conductors N that are part of the cable, and the diamater of the conductor d.

EquationCondition
0.7788 (d/2) N = 1
d1/2 N = 2
d2/3 N = 3
d2/3 N = 4
