Abstract

HEMSY, A.. Electrical potential between non-parallel flat electrodes - simulation of a cell used with tomato. An. AFA [online]. 2021, vol.32, n.2, pp.43-47. ISSN 0327-358X.  http://dx.doi.org/10.31527/analesafa.2021.32.2.43.

The equipotential lines of the field generated by the cell used in dielectric measurements of whole fruit tomato are plotted. This cell consists of two inclined electrodes, at inverse potentials, and is an adaptation made in the Dielectric Laboratory of the cell used by Varlan-Sansen. To obtain the graphs, the Laplace equation was solved by finite differences and a program in Fortran language was written, which performs the calculations by numerical iteration. The field generated by the cell at different electrode separation distances was analyzed.

Keywords : measuring cells; Varlan-Sansen; Laplace in FORTRAN.
