Distribution Lines Lightning-Induced Surges

Waveforms of insulator voltages computed using FDTD and EMTP, in the case of a ramp current having a magnitude 1 A and a risetime 1 is being injected. (Reprinted from Noda, T., lEE J. Trans. Power Energy, 127(2), 379,2007. With permission from lEEJ.) (a) FDTD and (b) EMTR 

Note that Ishii et al. [21] have well-reproduced lightning-induced voltages measured in their experiment with Agrawal et al. s field-to-wire electromagnetic coupling model [22], and Baba and Rakov [23] have reproduced the same measured waveforms using the FDTD method [1]. 

Using the same time-domain method, Moini et al. [25] have performed a computation of lightning-induced voltages on vertically arranged and horizontally arranged multiphase conductors above a flat perfectly conducting groxmd.
