Lightning menace to ship and corresponding protection design requirements

摘要

Ship is the object which most probably suffer from lightning on the sea. Both the direct and indirect effect of lightning shall disserve seriously to the highly information-based ship system. Therefore, the lightning protection design requirement for ship should contain not only direct lightning protection but also lightning EMP protection. In this paper, the disserving characteristics of lightning to ship are investigated, as well as the direct lightning and LEMP protection design requirement for ship system are proposed.
