Description
Summary:In this article, a simple 2D finite element model is proposed for computing the RMS electric field strength generated by overhead power lines. The model it is implemented in FEMM 4.2, a high quality, open source finite element software for solving low frequency electromagnetic problems, for the particular case of a 110 kV single-circuit overhead power line. The results obtained with this model there are analyzed and then compared to those obtained by analytical calculations, revealing a very good agreement. The proposed FEMM 4.2 model it is primarily intended to assess the compliance with the electric field exposure limits established by health regulations, but other applications are also possible.
