Evaluating the Electromagnetic Field Problem Generated by the Power Transmission Line Using High Order Compact Method

This paper compares a finite difference method-based computational scheme for evaluating electromagnetic field problems in power transmission lines in cases of on surface and in Ground. The scheme uses Maxwell's partial differential equations to represent electric and magnetic field components and approximate boundary conditions. The High Order Compact Method (HOC) is applied to estimate the electric field (Ez )in ground and compares it with the standard central difference scheme. The HOC produces more accurate results than the traditional central approximation at 99.7% for the electric field Ez. It also calculates both of Electric and magnetic intensity to evaluate the effect of Electric and magnetic intensities in ground and on surface respect to distance.
