. . . Can the single-wire transmission line be modeled with EZNEC if the height is greater than 0.2 wavelength? Can it be modeled with NEC4? If so, could someone do it and report the results? I don't think either program can model it. Single wire transmission line operation depends on an interaction among the field from the wire current, the insulation, and the air, that NEC-2 and -4 don't model. The wire insulation calculation provided by EZNEC and NEC-4 only calculates the effect of insulation on wire impedance, not on how the field launches from the wire. You might be able to do it with a 3D field solving program (which, last I heard, were in the $20k+ category). Roy Lewallen, W7EL |
