Toroid Capacitance Calculator
Sphere/Toroid Topload Capacitance Calculation
Torroid Capacitance, using Bert Pool Equation, Accurate up to 2M Outside diameter.
C(pf) =2.8 * (1.2781- (d2/10) / (d1/10)) * Math.sqrt( 0.1217 * (d2/10) * ((d1/10) - (d2/10)) )
Sphere Capacitance, using C(pf) = (d/2)/9
Torroid/Sphere Breakout, Antonio Carlos M. de Queiroz V= 3*exp( (log(d1/2)+log(d2/2))/2)
Where d,d1 & d2 are in mm
There is an inches-mm or mm-inches conversion below for easy referance.
