Effect of Tunnel Pit Radius Variation on the Electric Characteristics of Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor
The electric characteristics of aluminum electrolytic capacitors had been analyzed by the transmission line model. The anode foil pits are considered as cylindrical holes and the pit impedance is estimated by the transmission line mode, too. The pit impedance depends on the pit geometry, in particular, radius. The distribution of the pit radius of etched foils is not in accordance with a normal distribution, but a log normal distribution. In this paper, the effect of the pit radius distribution on the impedance of aluminum electrolytic capacitors is calculated by Monte Carlo method. #ECS235, Presentation Type: Oral,Date/Time/Location: May 28, 2019 (11:00h-11:20h, Pearl 5) Symposium: F03: Characterization of Porous Materials 8,Presentation Type: Oral, Abstract Number: #F03-1107
