Abstract :
This paper presents a new technique for calculating the magnetic field shielding effectiveness of thin conductive sheets of materials. The sheets are modeled as meshes of passive shielding wire filaments. Using this technique, complex three dimensional sources and shield configurations can be easily modeled. A computer program was developed to perform the calculations, and a comprehensive set of experiments was performed to verify the technique. Calculations and measurements are compared in the paper. The calculation method provides a numerical and experimentally verified technique for evaluating the shielding effectiveness of thin conductive sheets for power system magnetic field shielding applications. A predictive method such as this is becoming increasingly important as conductive materials are increasingly becoming accepted as effective shielding materials
