Nowadays, it is increasingly important to detect whether cables are live for the operator's safety if there is a sudden power failure. It is especially hard to detect the electrical field of an underground line because of shielding. This paper on detection of live-line states in cables studied the detection characteristics of the change in the magnetic field and axis as the frequency, voltage, and distance at the same load are changed using 3 axes. A search coil type was used as a magnetic field sensor with non-contact. We found that magnetic fields decrease proportionally to the square of the distance and the decrease of rated voltage with load effected to magnetic field. The magnetic field was detected by 3-axis sensors given correct proximity, but appeared as noise components beyond a distance of 2 cm.

According to ICNIRP guidelines for limiting exposure to time-varying electric, magnetic and electromagnetic fields up to 300GHz, magnetic flux density which range from 3Hz to 150kHz are regulated to lower than $6.25{\mu}T$. In order to comply with its standard, OLEV(On-Line Electric Vehicle) have been designed considering EMF(Electro-Magnetic Field) reduction. However, if a current flowing in power line would be bigger for increasing power transfer efficiency, the established shield system no longer acts their role properly. In this paper, therefore, FCCL(Flexible Copper Clad Laminate) is applied to power line and pick-up devices to solve the problems. Though, the FCCL is normally utilized to insulator on circuit board, because of its high heat resistance characteristic, flexibility and thin properties, it makes effectiveness in the shielding device as well. 4 types of FCCL shielding structure are introduced to power line and pick-up devices. From the results, the FCCL which are placed in proposed positions shows maximum EMF reduction compared to the established shielding structure. Henceforth, if OLEV is applied FCCL shielding structure in practice, it will not only be more safe but also step forward to commercialization near future.

In this study, we have performed systematical FEM analysis for design of open-ended 3-layer magnetic shield. For the simulation to calculated shielding factors, the relative permeability was varied in the range of $2{\times}10^3\sim1{\times}10^5$, and the length of the magnetic cylinders and length difference between layers were changed. We found that the shielding factor of -60 dB were obtained with the relative permeability of over 20000 and the lengths of magnetic layers of 40 cm, 45 cm and 50 cm, and the uniform magnetic field could be obtained in the range of $10cm{\times}10cm-\phi$.

Turbomolecular pump (TMP) is widely used to obtain and maintain high vacuum by spinning turbine rotors to migrate gas molecules to the exhaust of the pump. However, performance of the TMP has not been well observed when it is influenced by strong magnetic field. Such study may give useful information about magnetic field tolerance of TMP, development of magnetic shielding technique for key components of TMP, etc. For this purpose, magnetic field induced by a circular current source was firstly designed and investigated. Using spherical coordinates and vector potential, magnetic field throughout the space including axis of rotation was calculated. Due to the rotational symmetry of the circular current source, induced magnetic field is azimuthally symmetric and, thus, is analyzed by radial and polar components of the magnetic fields. In order to enhance the numerical accuracy for the calculation, magnetic field was expressed by complete elliptic integrals of first and second kinds. According to the calculation, when 1 A of DC-current passes through a 1 turned circular wire with 50 cm of diameter, overall magnitude of the inducedmagnetic field was about 0.02 Gauss, which was used to the determination of the current and the number of turns of wires to fabricate the coil for the study on the magnetic field tolerance of TMP.

Fault current limiting (FCL) cable is a kind of superconducting cable which has a function of limiting the fault current at the fault of power grid. The superconducting cable detours the fault current through its stabilizer to keep the temperature as low as possible. On the other hands, the FCL cable permits the temperature rise within some acceptable limit and the fault current is limited by the consequent increase of the resistance of superconducting cable. This kind of FCL cable is called 'resistive FCL cable' because it uses resistive impedance to limit the fault current. In this paper, we suggest a novel concept of FCL cable, which is named as 'inductive FCL cable'. The inductive FCL cable is similar as the magnetic shielding fault current limiter in its operating mechanism. The magnetic field of superconducting cable is almost perfectly shielded by the induced current at the shielding layer during its normal operation. However, at the fault condition, quench occurs at the shielding layer by the induced current higher than its critical current and the magnetic field is spread out of the shielding layer. It will induce additional inductive impedance to the superconducting cable and the inductive impedance can be increased more by installing some material with high magnetic susceptibility around the superconducting cable. We examined the feasibility of inductive FCL cable with simple elemental experiments. The current limiting performance of inductive FCL cable was estimated considering an arbitrary power grid and its fault condition.

For sensitive measurements of micro-Tesla nuclear magnetic resonance (${\mu}T$-NMR) signal, a low-noise superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) system is needed. We have fabricated a liquid He dewar for an SQUID having a large diameter for the pickup coil. The initial test of the SQUID system showed much higher low-frequency magnetic noise caused by the thermal magnetic noise of the aluminum plates used for the vapor-cooled thermal shield material. The frequency dependence of the noise spectrum showed that the noise increases with the decrease of frequency. This behavior could be explained from a two-layer model; one generating the thermal noise and the other one shielding the thermal noise by eddy-current shielding. And the eddy-current shielding effect is strongly dependent on the frequency through the skin-depth. To minimize the loop size for the fluctuating thermal noise current, we changed the thermal shield material into insulated thin Cu mesh. The magnetic noise of the SQUID system became flat down to 0.1 Hz with a white noise of 0.3 $fT/{\surd}Hz$, including the other noise contributions such as SQUID electronics and magnetically shielded room, etc, which is acceptable for low-noise ${\mu}T$-NMR experiments.

All electric and electronic appliances require their own electromagnetic compatibility. So an industrially advanced nations have made many standards for regulation for their profits thus the researches on the electro-magnetic shielding effect(SE) are being increased. But the SE can not proved its effect by a theory alone because of complex-material problems. This study Present the correlation of the SE and immunity of radiated radio frequency of the electromagnetic field. We have analyzed the theory of shielding effect to the shield texture. It has been proved that experimental results showed this effects have intensive relations to the electromagnetic field immunity.

The EMI shielding effectiveness of shielding layers thickness was analyzed when the low conductivity shielding layers was placed in the near field of the noise source. A spiral antenna with broadband characteristics was used as the noise source, and graphite was selected as the low conductivity shielding material. Two spiral antennas were constructed to analyze the transmission coefficient between two antennas, and the distances between the transmitting and receiving antennas were 5 cm and 10 cm. The thickness of the shielding layers was changed from 1 um to 200 um. The frequency was changed from 100 MHz to 6 GHz to obtain a maximum SE(Shielding Effectiveness) of 70 dB. In this simulation, electronic shielding was used due to the nature of graphite, which is a shielding film material. Based on these results, we will study how to improve the shielding performance by implementing magnetic shielding in the future.
