Analyzing the Properties of Mobius Capacitors

A theoretical foundation crucial for the physical processes that occur when the mobius capacitor is connected to the AC circuit is elaborated in the paper. A thin copper sheet and the PVC adhesive insulating tape are formed into different types of capacitors with the aim of researching the properties of the mobius capacitor, and testing its capacitance. The obtained capacitance values of the mobius capacitors with a pair of capacitive enclosures are stable, i.e. 3.7 pF and 4.0 pF for the first system, and 27.3 pF and 27.5 pF for the second system with the larger conductive strips. The properties of the mobius capacitor connected to an AC circuit are tested. The capacitance of the capacitor is calculated indirectly from the data obtained by measuring in the circuit. The paper points out that the mobius capacitor operates in the AC circuit likewise the parallel plate capacitor. The distance between the conductive strips is variable because of the elasticity of the dielectric strip, so that the capacitance of the capacitor is easily influenced by squeezing the strip or by gradual relaxation of the strip. Therefore, less precision of measurement of capacitance of the mobius capacitor in relation to the parallel plate capacitor is obtained, such as evident from the calculated values of the measurement errors.
