Abstract :
Possible harmful effect of the low frequency electric and magnetic field on human health. This paper investigates using the COMSOL MULTIPHYSICS software modules in calculating the electromagnetic fields generated in the vicinity of High Voltage (HV) power transmission lines. The presented results in this paper demonstrate the effectiveness of using the electrostatic and magneto static modules of the COMSOL MULTIPHYSICS in electromagnetic fields calculation at many levels near power transmission lines. The resulting fields are compared with the International Commission on Non Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) field guidelines.
