Simulation of Important Factors' Impact in the Choice of Dielectric Material for Marine Applications

In maritime's practice, dielectric materials, as a part of ship’s systems, are under significant influence of different factors. The most influential factors, which are responsible for material's selection, are the area of application, operating frequency range, predictable temperature range and moisture of the environment (operating atmosphere). If other less important factors are in tolerable/acceptable range, it is necessary to select optimal material based on dominant influential factors. Based on the fact that dominant factors contribute directly to the value of the relative dielectric constant (permittivity), and the relative dielectric constant is the material’s characteristic, a material is numerically represented by the value of it. Numerical simulation of the mentioned factor’s influence to the complex relative dielectric constant is simulated in the paper. Program package Octave (compatible with Matlab) is used for the simulation.
