Electromagnetic Methods
By Doddy Sutarno
Electromagnetic Theory and Classification
IntroductionElectromagnetic methods provide another way of estimating the resistivity properties of the earth with two benefits compared to DC methods:– Depth sounding by
making measurements at multiple frequencies, or different times after some excitation.
– Contact for electrodesis not necessarily required.
The TransformerWithout making contact to the main power source, a transformer will provide electricity to light bulb (or house).The same physics will allow us to determine resistivity of the earth.To understand we need Maxwell’s Equations. But first some background….
Electromagnetic Field Quantities
Vector Fields– E,e = electric field (volts/m)– H,h = magnetizing force
intensity (A/m)– B,b = magnetic induction
or flux density (Tesla)– D,d = dielectric
displacement (Coulomb/m2)– I,i = current density (A/m2)– V= Voltage (Volts)
Relationships between fieldsD= E where is the dielectric permittivityUnits = Farads/ m (capacitance)= r 00 Dielectric permitivity of free space (8.85x10-12 f/m)r = relative dielectric permitivity or dielectric constantr =1 in airr =80 in water
B=H =magnetic permeabilityUnits = Henrys/m (Inductance) = r 0

EM Wave Propagation and Attenuationcos(t-az) indicates wave is propagating as a sinusoid in the z direction.e-az indicates wave is also decaying, or attenuating in the z direction.Skin Depth () defined as the depth at which wave amplitude has decayed to 1/e its original value.– =1/a.– 503(ρ/f)1/2 in meters
Skin Depth yields estimate of maximum depth sensitivity for EM methods.Resistivity/frequency dependence indicates that– Greater sensing
depth in higher resistivity materials.
– Increasing depth sensitivity with decreasing frequency.
Skin depths for Different Resistivities
Back to the TransformerCurrent (I) flowing in conductive wire produces H field via Ampere’s Law (assuming << σ): x H = JHigh m value of core material enhances B field: B=HAn E field is produced which curls around the magnetic field via Faraday’s law: x E= -iBThis results in a voltage in the coil: ( x E )nds=E dl =V Since V=IR, current results in second loop to light bulb.
The Earth ‘Triple’ Transformer….The interaction between an EM geophysical measurement system and the earth can be thought of as an interaction between three different transformer systems:– A transmitter coil and a receiver coil (measured primary field).– A transmitter coil and an ‘Earth’ coil (producing scattering or eddy
currents in earth).– An ‘Earth’ coil and a receiver coil (measured scattered or secondary
field).
This is signal we are interested in
The Earth CircuitThe simplified single eddy current is best represented by a LR circuit.Real earth is best thought of as a series of LR circuits.Note- eddy currents that are produced generate secondary magnetic fields that oppose the timevariations in primary magnetic field.
