Força de levitação e distorção do campo elétrico devido a partículas condutoras livres.

Abstract

This work aimed to calculate the electric field distortion in the vicinity of a conductive particle between two flat, infinite and parallel electrodes, when a uniform electric field is applied to them. A modified charge simulation method was used in the calculations so that the deviations between the particle surface potential and the potential obtained through the simulation were minimized based on the least squares method. The value of the maximum electric field and the levitation force on the particle were also calculated.
