Abstract

The electromagnetic interference caused by overhead power lines on nonparallel underground pipelines is assessed in "A numerical model for the calculation of electromagnetic interference from power lines on nonparallel underground pipelines" (Popoli et al., 2020 [1]) by segmenting the pipeline path in a number of traits parallel to the power line. The analysis requires a multi-port electrical component to be extracted for each pipeline segment by means of finite element 2D analysis; circuit analysis can then be applied to the network composed of the cascade of the multi-port electrical components in order to calculate the induced voltages and currents on the pipeline. The data in this paper consist of matrices which represent the multi-port electrical components corresponding to the segments in which the pipeline has been subdivided. These matrices can then be used as constitutive relations in network analysis, as detailed in (Popoli et al., 2019 [2]), in order to find the induced pipeline voltages and currents for different intersection angles between the pipeline and overhead power line routings.
