The Capacity and Phase Difference of Paraffined Paper Condensers as Functions of Temperature and Frequency - Softcover
Synopsis
Paraffined Paper Condensers: How temperature and frequency affect capacitance and phase in imperfect dielectrics
A study of how real-world condensers behave when temperature and frequency change, with practical measurement methods and observed results. This edition presents the measurement approach and key observations from early 20th-century experiments. It explains how alternating current helped obtain faster, more accurate results and how temperature shifts influence capacity and phase in imperfect dielectrics. The discussion links these findings to broader theories of absorption and dielectric behavior.
- See how different condensers respond to temperature changes and across a range of frequencies.
- Learn about bridge measurement methods used to compare unknown condensers with standards.
- Understand the role of residual charge, phase difference, and the influence of resistance and inductance in measurements.
- Get qualitative explanations for observed curves and the factors driving them in paraffined paper condensers.

The Capacity and Phase Difference of Paraffined Paper Condensers as Functions
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 4 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the relationship between the capacity and phase difference of paraffined paper condensers as functions of temperature and frequency through a series of detailed measurements and observations. The author conducted a set of experiments at two frequencies, 33 and 100 cycles per second, and at temperatures ranging from 10° to 35° in steps of 5° to examine the effects of external resistance on the condenser. A second set of measurements were recorded at 100, 300, 600, and 900 to 1000 cycles, and at temperatures of 10°, 25°, and 35°. The book examines various theories of absorption, including Maxwell's theory of a heterogeneous dielectric, Houllevigue's theory of frictional resistance, Pellat's theory, and von Schweidler's modified Pellat theory. The author concludes that Maxwell's theory, with some modification to account for the effects of temperature and frequency, provides the best explanation for the observed behavior of paraffined paper condensers. This book will be of interest to physicists and electrical engineers working with capacitors and dielectrics, and to historians of science interested in the development of our understanding of electrical phenomena.
