Reduction effect of electromagnetic radiation emitted from mobile phones on human head using electromagnetic shielding materials

Abstract

Abstract Since the development of wireless technology we have been benefitted in many ways while becoming more susceptible to the electromagnetic radiations as electromagnetic radiations are the basic means of transmission in this technology. There has been many advancements in the technology which leads to the increased possibilities of exposure to the radiations .The constant exposure to the radiations is found be hazardous to the health of the person. There has been many efforts made by the scientist and research community so as to mitigate the bad effects of radiations by using the shielding materials which absorb the radiations. In this paper we have tried reducing the effect of electromagnetic radiations coming from mobile phones on human head. We used 6 materials as shielding materials. They are germanium, silver, nickel, ferrite, polyurethane and ABS. We conducted thermal analysis in ANSYS workbench. The results are showing that the heat flux developed and the temperature rise is minimum in case of polyurethane while it is maximum with silver.
