Where, C = capacitance value in farad ε = dielectric constant d = distance between two plate in m A = common area of plate in m2

If A and d are constant then capacitance is directly proportional to dielectric constant i.e. C α dielectric constant (ε ). This principle is used in the capacitance level gauge for detecting level change.
