Reproduction of National Bureau of Standards Circular 544, issued September 10, 1954. It gives formulas for capacitance of many electrode geometries (guarded plates, spheres, cylinders, spheroids, toroidal surfaces), self and mutual inductance of circuits, electrodynamic forces between coils, and skin and proximity effects. It uses Legendre and elliptic functions and includes derivations and references. It sits in a support folder for Phil's bowl-in-toroidal-coordinates electrostatics work.

: Formulas forComputing Capacitance| andInductance
Chester Snow
Explicit formas aregiven forthecomputation of(1)thecapacitancebetween conductors having agreat variety ofgeometrical configurations, (2)theinductance, bothself- andmitual, ofcircuits ofvarious shapes, and(3)
theelectrodynmnic forces acting between coils whencarrying current. Form
lasforskineffect andproximity effect inconcentric cables andparallelwires areincluded. ‘Theformlas forthe‘simpler configurations aregiven in
terms oftheelementary functions, whereas morecomplex shapes involve theuseofLegendre polynominals, Legendre functions, andelliptic functions. One
section isdevoted toadiscussion oftherelation between theLegendre andtheelliptic functions.
Introduction
Thiscollection offormulas contains somethatarecommonly usedinelectrical work andsome thathave been specially developed forprecision work atthisBureau. This isno
attempt atcompleteness, forthere isnowavailable (since 1948) revised third edition
oftheearlier compilation offormilas forinductance byRosaandGrover [1].! Thismay
beconsulted forreferences tooriginal memoirs andalsofordiscussion ofthemostsuita-
bleformula for»given configuration orrelative dimensions. Reference mayalsobemade
toDr.Grover’s [2]additions tothese formulas in1918andtohisbook"Inductance caleu-
lations working formulas and tables.”
Formas forcapacitance maybefoundinthesecond edition, 1924,ofaworkbyJ.H. .Dellinger, L.E.Whittemore, andR.S.Quld [3]. Thiscontains formulas forinductance
andafewforcapacitance. Itispossible thattheaggregate ofresearches oncapacitance
uptothistimemight amount toacollection ofcapacitance formulas ascomprehensive as
that ofRosa andGrover forinductance.
Theformulas given herecontain, inaddition toelementary functions, theLegendre
polynomials P,,theLegendre functions 0,yandP,yandelliptic functions. Itisshown
insection 4howthelatter twomaybefoundbyuseoftables ofthetwocomplete ellipticintegrals Xand 8.
These,together withtheincomplete integrals F(d,k) andB(¢,k), andanu,cnU, dnu,ete,maybereadily foundfromthe1947Smithsonian elliptic functions tablesby G.W.andR.M.Spenceley [4]. Qnepoint ofsuperiority ofthiswork over that ofBR.L.
Hippisley [5]isthatitproceeds byincrements of1°inthemodular angle instead of5°.
Another purelymathematical tableofelliptic functions andthetafunctions thathas beenfoundveryusefulistable1,(1922)byH,Nagaoka andS,Sakurai [6].Thesameau- thorsin(1927) [7,table 2]produced avolume moredirectly applicable tothecalculation

ofthe force between coils and their self and mutual inductance. For the latter, Nagaoka
[8]has also published three formulas that make use ofthe remarkable convergence rate of
the series defining the theta functions inpowers ofthe Jacobian paraneter q.
Short tables oftheta functions are given byJahnke and Ende [9]. Also short tables
ofF(d,h) and E(¢,k) were given byB.0.Peirce [10]. The recent work ofW.Magnus and
F.Oberhettinger [11] isvery useful.
These volumes, especially the work ofthe Spenceleys put the computation offormas
with elliptic functions inquite adifferent light. Such formulas are not more difficult
than those with sines, cosines, and logarithns.
Insection 5are placed afew notes onmethods ofderiving sone ofthe formulas given
here that are not generally available, orperhaps are unpublished. Where space permits,
ithas been attempted tosummarize the entire électric field, onwhich capacitance is
based, orthe entire magnetic field underlying the inductance constants. Such ascheme
seems desirable onalarger scale than ispossible here. Fach formla for capacitance re-
quires the evaluation ofthe electric potential orfield atevery point ofspace. For
each inductance Zor4,one must find the vector potential ormagnetic field everywhere.
The constants C,L,orMrepresent asmall byproduct, since they are derived from the
fields bydirect processes. Asummary ofthe more important electric and magnetic fields
that have been evaluated todate would probably fit present requirements better than fur-
ther tabulation ofcapacitance and inductance.
1.Capacitance
Theformulas forcapacitance given inthispaper areexpressed inthecentimeter-
gram-second electrostatic system ofunits (unrationalized). Iflengths incentimeters are
substituted forthecorresponding symbols inaformula, theresulting value ofCwill be
thecapacitance incgselectrostatic units. This value should bemultiplied by10/9 (more
precisely 10/c =1,11277) toobtain thecapacitance inmicromicrofarads. The formulas as-
sume adielectric constant ofunity (in the egs-esu system). Ifthe space between elec-
trodes isfilled with adielectric ofpermittivity ¢,relative toempty space, thevalue
ofcapacitance ascomputed from the formula should bemultiplied by¢,.
Alternatively, when expressed inthe rationalized meter-kilogram-second-ampere
(Giorgi) system ofunits each formula for capacitance would have anadditional factor of
47(byreason ofthe rationalization) andalso afactor of10'/4nc? (byreason ofthe
conventionally chosen permittivity offree space). The net result isthat with the dimen-
sions expressed inmeters, andafter multiplying bythecombined factor 1.11277 x10", the
resulting value ofCisinfarads. :
The formulas for inductance and electromagnetic force given inthis paper are ex-
pressed inthecentimeter-gram-second electromagnetic system ofunits (unrationalized).
Inusing the formlas, lengths should beexpressed incentimeters, currents inabamperes
(i.e., units of10amperes), and thepermeability ofspace should betaken asunity. If
this isdone, theinductances ascomputed areinunits of10~® henry, forces areindynes,
and torques indyne-centimeters.
Alternatively intherationalized meter-kilogram-second-ampere system theformlas
should bemultiplied by1/47 (byreason ofrationalization) andby47-107" (byreason of
2
|theconventionallychosenpermeabilityoffreespace).Thenifdimensionsareexpressed
inmeters, andcurrents inamperes, the inductances ascomputed will beinhenries, the
: forces innewtons, and the torques innewton-meters.
: ‘Thefirst sixfigures illustrate twocases. Intheaxially symmetric cases thefig-
ures represent plane sections through theaxis ofsymmetry. Inthe cylindrical case they
: are plane sections perpendicular tothe endless generators. Inthis case the formlas
; give thecapacitance C/lperunit length perpendicular totheplane ofthefigure.

Inthe case oflong straight wires, the formulas below apply forthe uniform current

Inthe case ofwires inthe form ofcircular turns, orinform ofhelices, the few

density inversely proportional tothedistance from theaxis ofsymmetry).
‘The distinction between uniform and natural distribution isonly ofinterest for pre-
cision measurements.

Equation (5.46) isvalid when ¢,-1 isnotsmall. Hence there remains agap, nothere con-
sidered, between the ranges ofvalidity ofthe two equations (5.46) and (5.36), which
could only bebridged byanequation more complicated than either. Applications of(5.46)
that would require theretention ofthe second-order terms areexceedingly rare. Itis
generally sufficient toconsider the total current concentrated inafilament with trace
atcenter of the circular section of the wire.
