Tall-Structure Lightning Return-Stroke Modelling
A lightning return-stroke model, based on the lightning return-stroke current derivative measured at the Toronto CN Tower is presented in this paper. A 3-section transmission line representation of the CN Tower along with the derivative of the modified Heidler function is used to simulate the measured current derivative signal. Reflections from major structural discontinuities of the CN Tower a...
متن کاملelectromagnetic radiation from lightning return strokes to tall structures
The study of the interaction of lightning electromagnetic fields with electrical systems and the design of appropriate protection strategies are generally based on statistical distributions of the lightning current measured at the channel base using either instrumented towers or artificial initiation of lightning using rockets. Recent studies based both on numerical modeling and experimental ob...
متن کاملLightning Return Stroke Speed
The available experimental data on return stroke speed for both negative and positive lightning are reviewed. The often assumed relationship between the return-stroke speed and peak current is shown to be generally not supported by experimental data. Reasons for the return-stroke speed being lower than the speed of light are discussed. Index Terms Lightning return stroke, propagation speed, pea...
متن کاملSpectral Properties of Lightning Return Stroke
Using a slit-less spectrograph the spectra in the range of 390-660nm for first return strokes of CG lightning flashes have been obtained both in Qinghai plateau, northwestern China and in coastal area of Guangdong, southern China respectively. The heights of two observation sites differ by 2500 meters. Appling the atomic structure theory to the research work on lightning spectra, parameters suc...
متن کاملCN Tower Lightning Return-Stroke Current Simulation
Different functions have been used to model the lightning return-stroke current with the aid of direct current measurements at tall structures. In this paper, a comparison between the Pulse function and Heilder function is carried out to find out the suitability of each of these functions for simulating the lightning return-stroke current, measured at the CN Tower. An automated system for deter...
