Abstract

With the widespread use of electromagnetic fields in all areas of life, electromagnetic shielding has become an increasingly important discipline. With the multidisciplinary research direction that brings together various disciplines such as engineering, physics and materials science, and rapidly developing technologies, electromagnetic shielding continues to be of critical importance for the safety of electronic devices and systems. This paper evaluates the electromagnetic shielding potential of low carbon ST52 steel in the frequency range of 4900-6000 MHz. ST52 steel is widely used in various applications. The study aimed to investigate whether ST52 steel is a viable option for electromagnetic shielding, given its accessibility and cost-effectiveness compared to other materials. Results showed that ST52 steel is effective in shielding electromagnetic waves, with a range of 40-60 dB in the 4900-6000 MHz frequency range, meeting the 40 dB criterion set by ASTM regulations. Results showed that ST52 steel is effective in shielding electromagnetic waves, with a range of 40-60 dB in the 4900-6000 MHz frequency range, meeting the 40 dB criterion set by ASTM regulations. Results showed that ST52 steel is effective in shielding electromagnetic waves, with a range of 40-60 dB in the 4900-6000 MHz frequency range, meeting the 40 dB criterion set by ASTM regulations. The study demonstrates that ST52 steel performs exceptionally well across a broad frequency range, which distinguishes it from other materials. This is particularly evident in the 4900-6000 MHz frequency range, where ST52 steel exhibits superior electromagnetic shielding potential compared to other materials. The study's insights are valuable for professionals seeking dependable electromagnetic shielding solutions in sectors such as telecommunications, defense, and electronics manufacturing.

Düşük Karbonlu St52 Çeliğinin Elektromanyetik Kalkanlama Potansiyeli: 4900-6000 MHz Frekans Aralığında Performans İncelemesi

Abstract

Elektromanyetik alanların hayatın her alanında yaygınlaşmasıyla elektromanyetik kalkanlama da önemi artan bir disiplin olmuştur. Mühendislik, fizik ve malzeme bilimi gibi çeşitli disiplinleri bir araya getiren çok disiplinli araştırma yönüyle ve hızla gelişen teknolojilerle birlikte elektromanyetik kalkanlama, elektronik cihazların ve sistemlerin güvenliği için kritik bir öneme sahip olmaya devam etmektedir. Bu makale kapsamında, çok geniş bir kullanım sahasına sahip olan düşük karbonlu ST52 çeliğinin elektromanyetik kalkanlama potansiyeli 4900-6000 MHz frekans aralığında değerlendirmektedir. ST52 çeliğinin kolay erişilebilir ve birçok emsaline göre fiyat/performans avantajları sebebiyle, elektromanyetik kalkanlama açısından kullanılabileceği sorusuyla başlayan bu çalışma sonucunda, ST52 çeliğinin 4900-6000 MHz frekans aralığında 40-60 dB arasında etkili bir elektromanyetik kalkanlama performansına sahip olduğu görülmüştür. Bu değerler, ASTM düzenlemeleri tarafından belirlenen 40 dB'lik elektromanyetik kalkanlama kriterini başarıyla karşılamaktadır. Elde edilen bulgular, literatürdeki benzer çalışmalardan farklı olarak ST52 çeliğinin geniş bir frekans aralığında güçlü bir performans sergilediğini göstermektedir. ST52 çeliğinin elektromanyetik kalkanlama potansiyeli, özellikle 4900-6000 MHz frekans aralığında diğer malzemelerden ayrışmaktadır. Bu çalışmadan elde edilen bilgiler, telekomünikasyon, savunma sanayi ve elektronik üretimi gibi sektörlerde güvenilir elektromanyetik kalkanlama çözümleri arayan profesyoneller için önemlidir.
