      Al-Sallami, Hussein Mahdi Yaseen; Hoff, Bjarte; Ellingsen, Pål Gunnar; Østrem, Trond (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-09-30)
      This paper studies the capacitive coupling in a capacitive power transfer (CPT) system designed for charging applications. It proposes mathematical models using the conformal transformation for calculating air-gapped and underwater capacitance and verifies the proposed models using COMSOL multiphysics and measurements. The measured results show that we can achieve nano-farad capacitance ranges ...
