Two intersecting conducting planes electric field
Two intersecting conducting planes electric field
Two conducting planes intersect at an angle β = 270°. The planes are assumed to be held at potential V. Find the electric field distribution near the corner.
Problem Type:
Plane problem of electrostatics.
Geometry:
Given:
Relative permittivity of vacuum ε = 1;
Voltage V = 100 V.
Solution:
Open space problem is converted to the closed region problem using the "zero potential" boundary far away from the studying object.
Results:
Electric field strength distribution along the plane is shown in the table.
