The analysis of shielding enclosures is complicated by the existence of apertures and cables. The finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method can model shielding enclosures with complex geometries, but has difficulty modeling wires and cables of arbitrary radii. Modeling the wire by setting the axial component of the electric field to zero in the FDTD results in a wire with a radius determined by the mesh discretisation. Neglecting wire radius in applications such as electromagnetic interference (EMI) or printed circuit board modeling may result in gross errors because near field quantities are typically sensitive to wire thickness. Taflove (1990) developed a wire …

Thin slot modeling for the finite-difference time-domain (PDTD) method is investigated. Two subcellular algorithms for modeling thin slots with the FDTD method are compared for application to shielding enclosures in EMC. The stability of the algorithms is investigated, and comparisons between the two methods for slots in planes, and slots in loaded cavities are also made.
