Abstract :
The paper presents a method of the evaluation of capacitance of paraboloidal and spherical bowls using the method of moments based on the pulse function as the basis function and point matching for testing. The analysis is carried out by dividing the surface into curvilinear rectangular and triangular subsections. Numerical data on capacitance are presented
