The MV/LV transformer without a tank in the underground substation can produce remarkable interference with the computer Cathode-Ray Tube (CRT) displayers above the ground, because of the generated power frequency magnetic field. To resolve such problem, a tank with high conductivity or/and high permeability is needed to enclose the transformer. To evaluate the shielding effectiveness, the fini...

In this paper, an approach to the shielding effectiveness evaluation of a metallic enclosure with apertures is discussed. It has been previously shown that a simple analytical transmission line formulation gives good predictions of the shielding effectiveness of a metallic enclosure with apertures. In this work the model is extended to include the fundamental formulas to deal with the cases of ...

The wide-spreading use of innovative lightweight materials like advanced composites and metal coated plastics in several fields of applications has pushed toward an increasing interest in the characterization of the shielding performances of test materials. In the paper, we revisit the conventional methods of measuring shielding effectiveness of materials, and introduce the nested reverberation...

The paper addresses the use of statistical techniques in the assessment of the impact of parameter uncertainties on important EMC parameters such as shielding effectiveness

The transmission line matrix time domain (TLM-TD) method is used to simulate the electromagnetic pulse (EMP) coupled inside a shielding box with an aperture. Simulations for different electromagnetic pulses regarding to different rise time and fall time have been performed. The results for shielding effectiveness of these different excitations have been presented. A simple method that uses an e...

Single-walled carbon nanotube (SWNT)-polymer composites have been fabricated to evaluate the electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding effectiveness (SE) of SWNTs. Our results indicate that SWNTs can be used as effective lightweight EMI shielding materials. Composites with greater than 20 dB shielding efficiency were obtained easily. EMI SE was tested in the frequency range of 10 MHz to 1.5 ...

In order to evaluate the impulse magnetic field distribution inside buildings truck by lightning or by nearby stokes, a set of measuring system composed of self-made magnetic detection coil and fiber transmission system was developed. The sensitivity coefficient of the optical fiber transmission system was calibrated by sine wave generator. Connecting the output of a portable 8/20μs current gen...
