Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is an attempt to present under one cover the current state of knowledge concerning the potential lightning effects on aircraft and that means that are available to designers and operators to protect against these effects. The impetus for writing this book springs from two sources- the increased use of nonmetallic materials in the structure of aircraft and the constant trend toward using electronic equipment to handle flight-critical control and navigation function.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Typical design features of light aircraft were evaluated to determine their possible vulnerability to lightning and develop design guidelines for protective measures. From these evaluations and other related state-of-the-art technology, a set of engineering guidelines have been formulated to assist designers in making use of this technology to provide lightning protection for general aviation aircraft. This report presents these guidelines. The results of the experimental studies on which they are based are presented in a companion report. (Author).

Book excerpt: A comprehensive resource that explores electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) for aerospace systems Handbook of Aerospace Electromagnetic Compatibility is a groundbreaking book on EMC for aerospace systems that addresses both aircraft and space vehicles. With contributions from an international panel of aerospace EMC experts, this important text deals with the testing of spacecraft components and subsystems, analysis of crosstalk and field coupling, aircraft communication systems, and much more. The text also includes information on lightning effects and testing, as well as guidance on design principles and techniques for lightning protection. The book offers an introduction to E3 models and techniques in aerospace systems and explores EMP effects on and technology for aerospace systems. Filled with the most up-to-date information, illustrative examples, descriptive figures, and helpful scenarios, Handbook of Aerospace Electromagnetic Compatibility is designed to be a practical information source. This vital guide to electromagnetic compatibility: • Provides information on a range of topics including grounding, coupling, test procedures, standards, and requirements • Offers discussions on standards for aerospace applications • Addresses aerospace EMC through the use of testing and theoretical approaches Written for EMC engineers and practitioners, Handbook of Aerospace Electromagnetic Compatibility is a critical text for understanding EMC for aerospace systems.
Download or read book Natural Interference Control Techniques Part I Lightning Protection of Aerospace Rocket Vehicle Launching Systems written by M. M. Newman and published by . This book was released on 1963 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Alternative approaches in lightning protection of diverting a direct lightning strike to some distance away, or shielding sensitive equipment to withstand a direct stroke can be usefully combined for maximum protection. Lightning strokes to diversionary rods or towers still leave intense transient magnetic fields to contend with, as well as possible large ground currents in control cables. Shielding of all conductors and associated 'black boxes' of equipment is theoretically possible if resistance of cable sheaths and connector joints can be kept low enough. A possible combination approach in a ground installation is to "invite" nearby strokes to a central high point over a 'bird cage' wire assembly surrounding the launching system thus guiding the lightning current symmetrically so that the magnetic fields inside cancel to approach in effectiveness a complete "Faraday cage" with reasonable feasibility as to practicality and cost, for most cases of lightning to ground strokes which are nearly vertical. Slanting strokes or nearby strokes and intense EM waves would require some horizontal interconnecting wires as well. In cases of dry sandy terrain improved additional lightning protection may be necessary even for buried cables as indicated in illustrative test demonstrations.
Download or read book The Lightning Spark Barrier written by M. P. Amason and published by . This book was released on 1983 with total page 3 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lightning protection of modern aerospace vehicles must prohibit sparking in critical fuel vapor areas. In the past, it has been particularly difficult to keep mechanical fasteners from sparking during a lightning event. Attempts to seal off the fasteners from the critical fuel vapor area by manual application of sealant material have proven to be ineffective due to gaps and voids produced by the application process. A technique was developed by Douglas Aircraft Company to control the application of dielectric sealant material to isolate the mechanical fastener sparking from the critical fuel vapor area. The technique consists of a specially designed dielectric cap that fits over the fastener, providing uniform and controlled application of dielectric filler material. An adequate thickness of filler material provides a barrier that prevents the sparks from entering the critical fuel vapor area. The Lightning Spark Barrier is applicable to a wide variety of installations, including those with composite materials. A patent has been applied for. (Author).

This book was released on 2022-02-11 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book gives a contemporary and comprehensive overview of the physics of lightning and protection systems, based on nearly 40 years of research, teaching, and consultancy work in this area. The book begins with an overview of the climatology of lightning and electric storms, as well as giving insight into lightning discharge from the preliminary discharges or processes such as corona, stepped leader, and subsequent return strokes, including the important submicrosecond threats and continuous current. The subsequent chapters present measures of lightning threat analysis to aircraft and electric power systems, protection measures to be used in high-voltage to low-voltage computer and communication systems, as well as to commercial and domestic buildings. The book discusses challenges posed by the submicrosecond lighting current changes and climate change to present and future high-voltage apparatus and structures (including carbon composite aircraft and new buildings) exposed to lightning strikes. Including worked examples, illustrations, and detailed analysis, Lightening Engineering will be of interest to electrical engineers, as well as researchers and graduate students.
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.
