Abstract :
Results are presented of time-domain mathematical simulations to assess errors introduced by approximating the deflector plates using a finite number of sections. In order to validate the mathematical model of the deflector plates the predictions are compared with analytical equations for angular deflection for the situation where center-fed plates are energized by a step-function. Predictions of angular deflection are presented for four configurations of deflector plates in order to confirm that center-feeding is the best option considered.<>
