When capacitors are placed in parallel with one another the total capacitance is simply the sum of all capacitances. This is analogous to the way resistors add when in series. So, for example, if you had three capacitors of values 10µF, 1µF, and 0.1µF in parallel, the total capacitance would be 11.1µF (10+1+0.1).

Understanding Capacitor Function and Energy Storage. Capacitors are essential electronic components that store and release electrical energy in a circuit. They consist of two conductive plates, known as electrodes, separated by an insulating material called the dielectric. When a voltage is applied across the plates, an electric field develops ...
A capacitor is a two-terminal electrical component used to store energy in an electric field. Capacitors contain two or more conductors, or metal plates, separated by an insulating layer referred to as a dielectric. The conductors can take the form of thin films, foils or beads of metal or conductive electrolyte, etc.
