A Numerical Calculation of the Capacitance for the Rectangular Coaxial Line with Offset Inner Conductor Having an Anisotropic Dielectric

Abstract

The capacitances of the rectangular coaxial lines with an offset zero-thickness inner conductor having a sapphire dielectric are presented by using an expanded charge simulation method, In order to apply the method to an anisotropic region, we propose an electric potential formula for a two-dimensional system consisting of a line charge and an infinite plate conductor which are arbitrarily situated in the region. The potential formula is anatyticafly derived by means of an affine transformation, a confomal mapping technique, and the method of images. The capacitance calculated using this method is in good agreement with those of other available methods.
