Effect of errors of determination of thermochemical and thermophysical characteristics of insulating materials on integral process parameters of their polymerization

A prognostic model allowing for numerical evaluation of the effect of errors generated in determining basic thermochemical and thermophysical characteristics of insulating materials on integral parameters of their polymerization during fabrication of standard cable production is developed. It is established that even relatively small (15%) errors in numerical values of kinetic polymerization parameters may lead to significant (up to 30%) deviations in the integral characteristics of this process (in contrast to the thermophysical characteristics of the insulating materials, the effect of which is sufficiently moderated). The significance of high accuracy of determination of kinetic parameters of polymerization typical of cable production is substantiated.
