Electromagnetic Field Due to Lightning Strikes to Mountainous Ground
The produced electric and magnetic fields due to lightning strikes to mountainous ground are determined in this paper. For the sake of simplicity a cone-shaped ground with finite conductivity is assumed to represent a natural nonflat ground. By this assumption, we deal with an axillary symmetrical structure so we use the cylindrical 2D-FDTD to save the simulation memory and time, dramatically. ...
متن کاملSimultaneous remote electric and magnetic field measurements of lightning continuing currents
[1] Remote detection and measurement of the slowly varying continuing current that follows some lightning return strokes is difficult. Slow changes in quasi-static electric fields have been most frequently used to remotely measure continuing current. Because of the rapid attenuation of dipole electric fields with distance, though, the range over which the current will produce a measurable signa...
متن کاملEffect of Nearby Buildings on Electromagnetic Fields from Lightning
We present a discussion on the effect of nearby buildings on the electric and magnetic fields radiated by lightning. Electric and magnetic fields radiated from distant natural lightning have been measured simultaneously on the roof of a building (the Power Systems Laboratory of the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, Lausanne, Switzerland) and on the ground at different distances away from i...
متن کاملCharacterization of Lightning Electromagnetic
Characteristics of measured electric and magnetic fields generated by leaders and return strokes in lightning cloud-to-ground discharges are reviewed. The very close (within tens to hundreds of meters) lightning electromagnetic environment is discussed. Typical field waveforms at distances ranging from 10 m to 200 km are shown. Modeling of lightning return strokes as sources of electromagnetic ...
متن کاملElectric and magnetic fields and field derivatives from lightning stepped leaders and first return strokes measured at distances from 100 to 1000 m
[1] Using electric and magnetic field and field derivative sensors arrayed over an area of about 1 km, we measured the close fields of stepped leaders and first return strokes in 18 negative cloud-to-ground lightning flashes at distances to individual sensors ranging from about 100 m to about 1 km. We present examples of the close field waveforms along with their statistical characterization as...
