Form and capacitance of parallel-plate capacitors
Abstract
In basic electrostatics, the formula for the capacitance of parallel-plate capacitors is derived, for the case that the spacing between the electrodes is very small compared to the length or width of the plates. However, when the separation is wide, the formula for very small separation does not provide accurate results. In our previously published papers, we used the boundary element method (BEM) to derive formulas for the capacitance of strip and disk capacitors that are applicable even when the separation is large. In this paper, we present results and formulas for the capacitances of square and rectangular capacitors.>

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
