Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Protection From Lightning At the Aberdeen meeting of the British Association for the Ad vancement of Science Sir William Thomson made the remark, If I urge Glasgow manufacturers to put up lightning rods they say it is cheaper to insure than to do so. This was the answer given by practical business men, concerned only with questions of profit and loss, to the foremost physicist of our time; and their answer will serve as fairly representing views widely held, founded upon the double belief that the risk from light ning is not so very great and the protection afforded by the present methods not sufficiently certain to warrant implicit confidence and justify the necessary expense.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Code for Protection Against Lightning The effectiveness of lightning rods in reducing losses from lightning is indicated by the reports of a number of fire marshals and 1nsurance companies in the United States and Canada in which the losses 011 protected and unprotected buildings have been separated. The reports generally state that nearly all of the fire loss from lightning occurs in rural districts. The proportion of farm buildings equipped with lightning rods is not known except in Iowa, where a care ful estimate indicates about 50 per cent. In the years 1919 to 1921, in this State, 28 rodded buildings were destroyed by lightning, the loss amounting to $87 97 9. In the same period 503 other buildings were destroyed, the loss amounting to The value ofrodded buildings lost was only per cent of the total, although the number exposed was about 50 per cent. The condition prevailing in other. Mid-western States is not much different. Over large parts of Minnesota, Kansas, Missouri, Illinois, Wisconsin, Ohio, Indiana, and Michigan installations are numerous, and it seems probable that about half of the farm buildings in this entire. Area, at least of the better class, are protected. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2017-10-27 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Protection of Electrical Circuits and Equipment Against Lightning: Preliminary Report of the Sectional Committee on Protection Against Lightning Since the practice has been adopted, as above stated, of providing lines inherently able to withstand the lightning potentials which are incident to them, protection by lightning arresters is limited to the protection of apparatus. It is evident that this must be the case, since the field of influence of an arrester is very limited. Because of the nature of the impulses, an arrester, no matter what its characteristics, will not protect any apparatus or line insulation at any great distance away from the point of connection. Apparatus insulation, however, has been shown by experience and by theoretical considerations to require under-certain'conditions of exposure the use of protective equipment. It is known that it is possible for transient potentials to appear on trans mission lines Which will be dangerous to apparatus designed for the highest voltages now in use, but Whether such poten tials are sufficiently frequent and sufficiently dangerous to warrant the large investment required for protective equip ment for such systems has not been established.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from On the Nature of Thunderstorms: And on the Means of Protecting Buildings and Shipping Against the Destructive Effects of Lightning Dear Sir, Having been honoured by your permission to dedicate to you the following pages, I avail myself of the opportunity to express publicly my sense of the full consideration which, so long since as the year 1830, you gave to my proposals for defending Her Majesty's ships from the destructive effects of Lightning. Your anxious regard for the national welfare, and especially for the interests of the Navy of England, would necessarily have ensured a patient investigation of such proposals; but the kind attention with which you received my statements, and the candour and fairness with which you inquired into the many objections that were urged against them, have rendered the distinction of your approbation most valuable to me.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Practical Treatise on Lightning Protection: Giving Complete and Explicit Instructions for the Protection of Buildings and Explaining the Defects of the Lightning Conductors Now Erected It contains more complete and explicit directions for applying lightning-conductors to buildings than those given in the treatise issued by me in April, 1877, or contained in any other work. It is issued with a view of effecting a general introduction of the radial systems of lightning-conductors herein described, which are patented and endorsed by the most prominent electricians and scientists, and will, beyond doubt, supersede the unreliable systems of lightning-conductors heretofore employed, many of which have no less than four serious defects. The persons heretofore engaged in the business of manufacturing and erecting lightning-conductors have not thoroughly and prop erly investigated the action of the electricity of the air and earth while uniting during a lightning discharge, and, consequently, have not constructed and applied them to buildings, etc., in a proper manner. They have, erroneously, been governed by experiments with artificial electricity, which are not legitimate illustrations of the action of the electricity in a lightning discharge.

The protection of cables and telegraphic instruments in general from lightning constitutes another branch of the subject, and one that can be treated far more definitely and distinctly than can the protection of buildings. This branch of the subject is discussed at length in Part II.; and instruments made by Dr. Alexander Muirhead are there depicted which are now on trial in several important cable stations.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from State of the Question Relating to the Protection of the British Navy From Lightning: By the Method of Fixed Conductors of Electricity The following pages have been printed for the sake of perspicuity, and to avoid the trouble generally attendant on the perusal Of written documents they have not been published. In pointing out the actual state of the question of the defence of the navy from lightning, the author has simply and plainly stated certain facts in his possession connected with it; with a view of Shewing its influence on the naval and commercial interests of the country, on the existing state of our national science, as having strong claims to public consideration; and lastly, its relation to himself. And be it remem bered, that the question the author here proposes to discuss, is one of no small moment: it is a question actually involving the protection of the navy and shipping generally of this country, together with the lives Of our seamen, and the property of our merchants, against one of the most fearful and destructive agencies in nature; and to the effects of which, they are every day exposed.

Download or read book Electromagnetic Computation Methods for Lightning Surge Protection Studies written by Yoshihiro Baba and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2016-05-10 with total page 527 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Presents current research into electromagnetic computation theories with particular emphasis on Finite-Difference Time-Domain Method This book is the first to consolidate current research and to examine the theories of electromagnetic computation methods in relation to lightning surge protection. The authors introduce and compare existing electromagnetic computation methods such as the method of moments (MOM), the partial element equivalent circuit (PEEC), the finite element method (FEM), the transmission-line modeling (TLM) method, and the finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method. The application of FDTD method to lightning protection studies is a topic that has matured through many practical applications in the past decade, and the authors explain the derivation of Maxwell’s equations required by the FDTD, and modeling of various electrical components needed in computing lightning electromagnetic fields and surges with the FDTD method. The book describes the application of FDTD method to current and emerging problems of lightning surge protection of continuously more complex installations, particularly in critical infrastructures of energy and information, such as overhead power lines, air-insulated sub-stations, wind turbine generator towers and telecommunication towers. Both authors are internationally recognized experts in the area of lightning study and this is the first book to present current research in lightning surge protection Examines in detail why lightning surges occur and what can be done to protect against them Includes theories of electromagnetic computation methods and many examples of their application Accompanied by a sample printed program based on the finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method written in C++ program
