// Given data
d = 30.0/10          // Diameter of conductor(cm)
delta = 0.95         // Air density factor
m = 0.95             // Irregularity factor
E = 230.0            // Line voltage(kV)

// Calculations
E_0 = E/3**0.5                             // Disruptive critical voltage(kV)
r = d/2.0                                  // Radius of conductor(cm)
