초록

본 논문에서는 준정적 FDTD 기법을 FORTRAN 프로그래밍을 통해 직접 구현하고 이를 이용해 중간주파수 대역의 인체유도전류 분포를 해석하였다. 제작된 프로그램의 타당성을 검증하기 위하여 기존 FDTD 기법을 적용하기 어려운 테스트 모델에 대한 계산결과를 이론적 해와 비교하고, 타임스텝이 크게($5.68{\times}10^6$배) 단축되는 것을 확인하였다. 검증된 수치해석 기법을 이용하여 20[kHz] 자기장과 1[MHz] 전기장에 노출된 3차원 고해상도 인체모델에 유기되는 유도전류의 분포를 계산하고, 양 발의 접지조건이 유도전류의 분포와 크기에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 본 연구는 인체유도전류의 안전성 평가, 생체전기 응용 진단장치 개발 등을 포함한 다양한 분야에서 활용될 것으로 기대된다.

In this paper, quasi-static FDTD method is implemented by FORTRAN programming, and it is used for analysis of body induced current in middle frequencies. The quasi-static FDTD program is validated by comparing the calculation result with analytic solution of the test model, to which it is difficult to apply conventional FDTD. It is confirmed that the time-step is reduced by $5.68{\times}10^6$ times. Using validated numerical technique, body induced current distribution in high resolution 3-D human model is calculated for 20[kHz] magnetic field exposure and 1[MHz] electric field exposure. Also, the effect of grounding condition of both feet on the distribution and amplitude of the induced current is analyzed. It is expected that this research can be applied to various fields including safety assessment of body induced current and development of diagnosis devices using bio-electricity.
