Prior to the digital revolution, analog electrical computers were used to solve complicated mathematical equations (missile guiding, aerodynamics, stability, etc.). Many systems that can be modeled as a set of equations (linear, non-linear, differential, ordinary, partial, etc.) can be built as an electrical analog. Put very simply: If you can create a circuit that models …

Resistors and inductors follow the same rules for Y-Delta and Delta-Y transforms because they combine similarly in series and parallel. This does not hold true for capacitors. Through no small feat of algebraic manipulation, it can be shown that the Y-Delta and Delta-Y transforms for capacitors are as follows: Y-Delta Transformation Delta-Y Transformation Circuit Diagram
