Abstract

The purpose of the paper is to analyze and simulate the shielding effectiveness (SE) performance of a fiber reinforced cylindrical shell. A matrix model is presented to evaluate the transmitted electromagnetic fields on the axis of cylindrical shell. SE performance of the cylindrical shell is calculated for various parameters such as radius of cylinder, shell thickness and shell conductivity. Also, a 3D model of the cylindrical shell is constructed via Computer Software Technology (CST) program to carry out the analytical results. The analytical calculations and simulations are performed for TM mode excitation. A good agreement is obtained by the comparison of analytical results and CST simulations.

Fiber Takviyeli Silindirik Kabuğun Ekranlama Etkinliğinin Analizi ve Simülasyonu

Abstract

Bu çalışmanın amacı, fiber takviyeli silindirik bir kabuğun ekranlama etkinliği performansını analiz etmek ve modellemektir. Silindirik kabuğun ekseni üzerinde oluşan elektromanyetik alanları hesaplamak için bir matris modeli sunulmuştur. Silindirik kabuğun ekranlama etkinliği performansı, silindir yarıçapı, kabuğun kalınlığı ve kabuğun elektriksel iletkenliği gibi çeşitli parametreler için hesaplanmıştır. Ayrıca, analitik sonuçları doğrulamak için Elektromanyetik Alan Simülasyon Yazılımı (CST) programı ile silindirik kabuğun 3 boyutlu bir modeli oluşturulmuştur. Analitik hesaplamalar ve simülasyonlar TM modu için gerçekleştirilir. Analitik sonuçların ve CST simülasyonlarının karşılaştırılması sonucunda iyi bir uyum elde edilmiştir.
