capacitance evaluation in parallal plate capacitor

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

dear all:
I am simulating a parallel plates capacitor with comsol 4.3 , this capacitor has a guard ring around one of the two plates and this guard ring has the same potential as the plate that it surrounds. I made first plate as terminal 1 ... and the guard as terminal 2 ......and the second plate as a ground.
i want to measure capacitance between the plates ........but all i got is the capacitance of the whole structure............please, anybody knows the right configuration to do that ?
regards
Alex
