Design of a New Parallel-Plate Capacitor to Increase the Capacity Value

Abstract

The demand for dielectric materials has increased rapidly since the energy storage systems have an important place in many areas such as medical, defense, military, telecommunication and aerospace applications. The interaction of the electromagnetic waves with matter provides valuable information about the stored energy by material. Hence, the capacitor as an example of energy applications, which owes its energy storage capability to the internal dielectric material, is designed by using Ansys Maxwell software program to indicate the dependence of the capacitance on the dielectric constant and different design. The relationship between energy storage capacity and different design is shown by using different structures which are parallel plate and multi layered models. Furthermore, a new model has been designed and analyzed to increase the performance of capacitance value of capacitor. It is aimed to increase the interaction between surface area of dielectric material and conductive pipes/wires with this operation.
