... Capacitors Boundary‐elements methods Phase‐shifts caused by inductivities lead to unwanted losses and disturbances in electrical networks. Capacitive elements reduce these network losses, stabilize the network voltage and increase the power factor. Self‐healing metallized film capacitors (Berqvist...

.... This paper discusses a flaw of frequently used standard elements in boundary‐element‐method and shows a way to avoid it. Theoretically constant‐linear mixed elements are able to solve a homogeneous field problem exactly. The first two rows of Figure 4 , however, seem to prove it wrong. The reason...

...F.H. Read The boundary element method has been used to obtain the electrical capacitances of the unit equilateral triangle, square, regular tetrahedron and cube. For each of these objects, a series of values of the number N of segments has been used and then empirical formulae have been used...
