Abstract
This paper presents a coupled electromagnetic-thermal model for modelling arc discharge typical of lightning strike phenomena. The model is implemented in the Transmission Line Modelling (TLM) method and tested on a canonical case where a plasma conducting channel is established between two metal electrodes.
