Abstract
This is the fifth in a series of papers on the interrelation of the theory of the potential and the technical practice of electrodeposition. The paper deals with rectangular enclosures. It is shown how these systems can be employed to analyze practical problems in electrodeposition, for example: (1) the uniform plating of a circular cylinder with an enclosing anode in the form of a square; (2) the use of a wedge to plate into an internal right angle; (3) the curvatures that must exist at the apex of the angle in order that procedure (2) be practicable; and, (4) the effectiveness of insulating one side of the wall of a right angle to obtain a more uniform current distribution. A number of original problems in the theory of the potential are also included.
