Theoretical Modeling of Electromagnetic Field Exposure from High-Voltage Power Lines and Potential Health Implications

This study aimed to investigate potential health concerns linked to electromagnetic field (EMF) exposure from high-voltage power lines and develop a thorough knowledge of the underlying mechanisms causing these effects. The study looks into how Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) varies, how temperatures are distributed, and how these things affect people's health when they are close to electricity grid lines. The discretization finite difference approach was employed in this study to describe the electromagnetic waves, absorption rate, and temperature. The findings show a considerable variation in SAR values, from 0.0000 to 0.0072 W/kg, and SAR decreases from 1.0 to 0.0 W/kg as distance from the grid increases. The study also shows that stronger electric fields cause temperatures to rise along the grid lines. These results highlight the significance of comprehending and reducing possible health concerns related to electromagnetic field exposure close to electricity infrastructure. To diminish exposure and safeguard public health, it is advised that regulatory rules, public awareness campaigns, and urban planning efforts be implemented in light of the observed variability of surface radiation and temperature swings. Effective solutions to safeguard the safety of people living and working near electrical grid lines must be implemented through consultation with government agencies, utility companies, healthcare providers, and community groups. Stakeholders can create knowledgeable policies and practices to encourage safer living conditions and lessen the possible negative impacts of electromagnetic field exposure on human health.
