The Lightning Effects to the Aircraft Front Nose Radome Region
Main Article Content
Abstract
This research is to study the lightning effects on the aircraft nose radome region and determine a
suitable ratio of lightning diverter strips (LDS) versus antenna length for the protection of the aircraft
front nose radome. An experiment is conducted using reduced scale of an aircraft model with the ratio
of 1:40 based on results obtained from experiments, suitable LDS length per antennas with value of
greater than 1 will have a capability to protect the nose radome from lightning with appropriate angle
of 15-165 degree configuration.
