Abstract
Asymmetric capacitor like the so-called lifter can fly up from the ground. Some common characteristics exist in the asymmetric capacitor: high-voltage, capacitor, lift force. What are the accurate quantitative relations among them and how can we figure the lift force out? It’s a thorny problem so far. In this article, we attempt to establish a model that can match the actual experimental data and theory derivation result. After checking, the calculation result is verified to be correct.
