Abstract

This paper presents comparative studies on different numerical methods like method of moments (MOM), Boundary Element Method (BEM), Finite element method (FEM), Finite difference method (FDM), Charge Simulation method (CSM) and Surface charge method. The evaluation of the capacitance of various structures having different geometrical shapes is importance to study the behavior of electrostatic charge analysis. The MOM is based upon the transformation of an integral equation, into a matrix equation by employing expansion of the unknown in terms of known basis functions with unknown coefficients such as charge distribution and hence the capacitance is to be determined. To illustrate the usefulness of this technique, apply these methods to the computation of capacitance of different conducting shapes. This paper reviews the results of computing the capacitance-per-unit length with the other methods. The capacitance of charged conducting plates is reviewed by different methods.
