Simulation of the electromagnetic field in the vicinity of the overhead power transmission line

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the electromagnetic emission of the overhead power line, because these power line generate electromagnetic interaction with other objects near to it. The novelty of this work shows a numerical simulation of the electromagnetic field of the 400 kV line in both permanent and transient states at different positions, based on the finite element method using numerical software. Through the results of this study, it was found that the electromagnetic field in the transient state is very important. The findings of this research can be used to evaluate the field created around transmission lines in order to determine their impact on the environment and human health.
