Abstract
AbstractA model expressing beams, pillars, and electrical wiring in a building for lightning surge simulation by circuit analysis method is proposed in this paper. The proposed model expresses the self‐surge impedance of the electrical wiring as a function of the distance between conductors and the radius of the electrical wiring. The mutual impedance is expressed by the distance between the surfaces of a structure and a nearby wire instead of the distance between the conductor centers. In the case of two conductors having far different radii in proximity, the distribution of electromagnetic fields around the two conductors is similar in horizontal and vertical arrangements. Thus, the electrical wiring nearby pillars can be treated as a horizontal conductor. The circuit analysis results show that the voltage difference generated between the structure and the electrical wiring is calculated more precisely by the proposed model than by the conventional model.
