A lightning return stroke model for a downward flash is proposed. The model includes underlying physical phenomena governing return stroke evolution, namely, electric field due to charge distributed along the leader and cloud, transient enhancement of series channel conductance at the bridging regime, and the nonlinear variation of channel conductance, which supports the return stroke current evolution...
Analysis of lightning strike to Tall Grounded Objects (TGOs) is of practical importance. Actual measurements on TGOs have shown the presence of reflected current waves originating from either ends of TGO. With regard to the channel dynamics for these waves, there seems to be some uncertainties like: (i) will there be any reflection when these waves approach the wavefront, (ii) what would be their...
This paper describes how to analyze the EMC performance of the railway traction system by using PSpice. This analysis method is based on the accurate modelling of the IGBT and power diodes. The paper gives the analysis method as well as the modelling details of these power devices. An efficient way to predict the worst EMC performance is proposed, especially for high frequency EM noise. We have also...
