In order to clarify the generation mechanism of such ESD fields and also to reduce them, we previously proposed a finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) algorithm based on a delta-gap feeding method and a frequency dispersion characteristic formula (Naito's formula) of ferrite material for simulating the ESD fields due to a spark between the charged metals with ferrite core attachment. In the present study, by integrating the above FDTD algorithm and a spark-resistance formula, we simulated both of the ESD itself and the resultant fields for the metal bars with ferrite core attachment, and demonstrated that the core attachment close to the spark gap suppresses the magnetic field level. This finding was also validated via 6-GHz wide-band measurement of the magnetic near-field., application/pdf}, pages = {1960--1964}, title = {FDTD Simulation Based on Spark Resistance Formula for Electromagnetic Fields due to Spark between Charged Metal Bars with Ferrite Core Attachment}, volume = {E92-B}, year = {2009} }
