Book Lightning Protection for People and Property

Download or read book Lightning Protection for People and Property written by Marvin M. Frydenlund and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The word lightning conjures up many different thoughts, depending on who you are. For instance, an engineer might wonder, "How can I protect this building?" A computer manager might ask, "What protection is available to save my equip ment?" A golf course manager wants to warn golfers about life-saving measures to take during a lightning storm. And on and on the needs go. In fact, the variety of backgrounds of people who need to understand lightning, its effects, and pro tection techniques ranges from the highly technical to the illiterate, creating a very difficult educational problem for the lightning protection industry. In this book, Marvin Frydenlund presents a refreshingly new melding of the many pieces of the lightningjigsaw puzzle that are scattered throughout numerous libraries, magazine and newspaper articles, codes, standards, statistics, research, and the enormous body of information called "old wives' tales, myths, opinions, and snake oil sales literature." He has created a broad-spectrum review of the en tire field oflightning that is easy to read and understand, and it will benefit anyone who wants to study and comprehend the subject.

Book Lightning Physics and Lightning Protection

Download or read book Lightning Physics and Lightning Protection written by Eduard M. Bazelyan and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2000-01-01 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lightning Physics and Lightning Protection presents a comprehensive and up-to-date review of lightning, including its hazards and protection techniques. The authors first discuss the effectiveness of conventional protective measures, supply technical advice and practical recommendations, and explore the prospects for the preventive control of a lightning leader, followed by a discussion of the initiation of a leader and return stroke and subsequent components. After including measurements useful for understanding lightning and its effects, the book describes the mechanism of lightning discharge processes. It then examines the effects of large aircraft, high-voltage lines, and other high-altitude constructions on lightning trajectory and leader attraction. The book concludes by studying the action of lightning's electrical and magnetic fields and the lightning current on industrial premises, power transmission lines, underground communications, aircraft and their electrical circuits, and the induction of a dangerous overvoltage. A clear, straightforward, and systematic presentation of complicated material, Lightning Physics and Lightning Protection provides deep insight into the physics of lightning, simple analytical estimates, and a detailed illustration of effects by computer simulation, making this resource essential for those who investigate lightning phenomena and who have to solve practical protection problems.

Book Fundamentals of Lightning and Lightning Protection

Download or read book Fundamentals of Lightning and Lightning Protection written by Tibor Horvath and published by Research Studies PressLtd. This book was released on 2004 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lightning protection has been practised for more than 200 years but there is still a lack of an exact expression of the protective effects of the air terminations of lightning protectors. One of the most up to date problems is the protection of low voltage and electronic installation inside buildings. With the development of complex intelligent structures within buildings, their protection against lightning electromagnetic impulse (LEMP) is becoming increasingly important. This book with supporting CD helps to understand the propagation of waves in such installations and the operation of the protection systems. The computer program has been used to illustrate the special course Lightning Protection by the author, at the Budapest University of Technology. Over 100 students have chosen this subject in each semester. University professors have shown a positive interest in getting this course on the international conference circuit to illustrate their lectures. Along with the textual commentary it will be an excellent medium for individual study at home.

  • Author : Vladimir A. Rakov
  • Publisher : Cambridge University Press
  • Release : 2016-04-07
  • ISBN : 1316578003
  • Pages : 271 pages

Download or read book Fundamentals of Lightning written by Vladimir A. Rakov and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2016-04-07 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This new book provides a focused set of topics suitable for advanced undergraduate or graduate courses on lightning. It presents the current state of the art in lightning science including areas such as lightning modeling, calculation of lightning electromagnetic fields, electromagnetic methods of lightning location, and lightning damaging effects and protective techniques. Pedagogical features designed to facilitate class learning include end-of-chapter summaries, further reading suggestions, questions and problems, and a glossary explaining key lightning and atmospheric electricity terms. A selection of appendices are provided at the end of the book, which include detailed derivations of exact equations for computing electric and magnetic fields produced by lightning. Designed for a single-semester course on lightning and its effects, and written in a style accessible to technical non-experts, this book will also be a useful, up-to-date reference for scientists, engineers and practitioners who have to deal with lightning in their work.
