A power cable includes a conductor having a first section, a second section, and a weld metal located axially between the sections. The first section includes a central element made of a first metal and an outer structure made of a second metal surrounding the central element. The second section includes the second metal. An axial end section of the first section extends to the weld metal and includes a central axially extending member surrounded by the outer structure, wherein the member includes a first axial part made of the first metal and a second axial part made of the second metal. The first axial part has a first end welded to the central element and a second end welded to a first end of the second axial part. A second end of the second axial part and the outer structure are welded to the second section via the weld metal.

Power cable with bimetallic conductor

A power cable system including a power cable, and an evaporator pipe assembly extending along the power cable, wherein the evaporator pipe assembly having an inner liquid pipe including a pressurised liquid refrigerant, and an outer gas pipe arranged outside of and coaxially with the inner liquid pipe, wherein the inner liquid pipe is provided with a plurality of openings distributed along its length, and wherein the openings provide fluid communication between the inner liquid pipe and the outer gas pipe, allowing part of the pressurised liquid refrigerant to escape from the inner liquid pipe to the outer gas pipe and evaporate in the outer gas pipe, thereby cooling the power cable.
