Abstract: Jia, Heuer, Hillmann, and Meyendorf recently reported some simulations of the stray capacitance of two-dimensional spiral coils of the kind often used in eddy-current sensors. In this Letter, some amendments to the analysis are suggested, together with some approximations that permit more efficient computation.
