Theoretical formulas and numerical computation software based on boundary element method (BEM) are employed to evaluate the shielding effectiveness (SE) of cylindrical shell. It is shown that ungrounded or one end grounded metal shell is ineffective for such magnetic fields. SE can be obtained by connecting the two ends of the conducting shell with low impedance connector, or alternatively, grounding the two ends. The experimental results also support these conclusions.展开更多
Extremely low frequency (ELF) magnetic field susceptibility is an index of visual display unit (VDU) quality and performance.

This paper provided field measured data on the susceptibility for a large variety of VDUs. A test rig was built to study the susceptibility of VDUs to magnetic fields at fundamental and third harmonic frequencies. It was found that the susceptibility level is largely dependent on refresh rate of the VDU and the orientation of the external ELF field. It was also found that the VDU susceptibility is significantly increased in the presence of harmonic frequency magnetic fields. About 30% of the tested samples have susceptibility levels higher than that stated in IEC 1000-4-8 standard.展开更多
