Abstract
The electromagnetic interference (EMI) of overhead transmission lines (OHLs) to aboveground pipelines sharing the same right-of-ways has been a research topic for many years. Most studies focus on investigations of the induced currents and voltages at the mains frequency (50/60 Hz). However, significant voltage levels can also be induced, when the pipeline is subject to high-frequency excitation. The representation of earth conduction effects is very important to estimate accurately the level of the EMI. This article presents a detailed high-frequency analysis of OHL/pipeline configurations taking into consideration the frequency-dependent (FD) soil properties. Wise's earth formulation is adopted for the calculation of the earth return impedances and shunt admittances. Propagation characteristics, frequency-domain, and transient responses are calculated by using both the FD soil models and constant soil properties, as well as the classical transmission line approach of Carson. Frequency-domain responses calculated with Wise's formulation are compared against those obtained using the MoM-SO method of EMTP software.
