The design of a structural capacitor should include consideration of the capacitance of the interface between the dielectric film and electrode. The design should also address the electrical contacts on the structural capacitor.
Structural capacitors are structural materials (commonly polymer-matrix structural composites) that have been modified in order to render the capacitor function for the purpose of electrical energy storage. They are a type of multifunctional structural material.
Explore and interact with GE's High Voltage Capacitors, and learn how these advanced solutions increase capacity, stability and power quality for the grid. A high voltage (HV) capacitor is an electrical device that is used to store high voltage energy in an electrical field.
The capacitor model adopted in the LF is not ideal: to take into account the internal losses, an active power for the capacitor bank is considered equal to 0.5% of the reactive power. All nodes are eligible for capacitor placement ( ). Table 5. Capacitor bank unit data adopted in the case study.
The use of a glass fiber fabric (13 µm) as the dielectric film between carbon fiber epoxy-matrix composite electrodes, as fabricated by consolidation of the film with the carbon fiber epoxy prepreg, has been reported as a structural capacitor . However, the capacitance of the resulting capacitor has not been reported.
Thus, continuous fiber polymer-matrix composites , which are well-known for their combination of low density, high elastic modulus and high strength, are attractive for serving as the base material for modification to render the capacitor function. This review is thus focused on structural capacitors in the form of polymer-matrix composites.
