Analytical solution for capacitance calculation of a curved patch capacitor that conforms to the curvature of a homogeneous cylindrical dielectric rod

Abstract

This Letter presents an analytical expression for the capacitance of a curved patch capacitor whose electrodes conform to the curvature of a long, homogeneous, cylindrical dielectric rod. The capacitor is composed of two infinitely long curved electrodes, symmetrically placed about a diameter of the cylinder cross-section. The resulting capacitance per unit length depends on both the dielectric properties of the material under test and the capacitor configuration. A practical capacitance measurement is also presented, with appropriately guarded finite electrodes. Very good agreement between measured and theoretically predicted capacitances were observed, to within 2.4 percent. The analytical result presented in this Letter can be applied for extremely rapid evaluation of rod permittivity from measured capacitance.

Interdigital Capacitive Sensor for Cable Insulation Defect Detection: Three‐Dimensional Modeling, Design, and Experimental Test

“…The simulation results show that the output capacitance and sensitivity of the sensor become greater, which is consistent with the experiment. Chen et al [15,16] proposed a curved IDC sensor for measuring the cable insulation. Measurements of capacitance were made on aircraft wires, and the permittivity of the insulation was obtained.…”

Analytical solutions for capacitance of a semi-cylindrical capacitive sensor

“…The CPC consists of two electrodes in which one of them can be driven to follow the cylindrical curve of the capacitors.
