One typical design comprises five electrolytic capacitors, which are connected in parallel with the battery bank to supply a 80 kW motor drive system which cannot accurately predict power loss and capacitor lifetime. The ideal capacitor model does not properly account for the effects of variation of load
Radios need diodes across diodes in a power supply because diodes modulate conductivity to mains wires. Mains wires work like antennas, and radio has a high sensitivity to all possible sources of a signal. So any rectifying diode in a radio power supply has to be shunted by a capacitor (about >=1 nF) to get rid of this parasitic modulation.

Adding a capacitor in parallel will increase equivalent capacitance of circuit, thus Xc (= 1/wC) should decrease, which is contrary of what we wanted to do. Remember, Z = R + jX Z = R + j X For an inductor XL = ωL X L = ω L and for a capacitor, XC = −1 ωC. X C = − 1 ω C.
which means that the equivalent capacitance of the parallel connection of capacitors is equal to the sum of the individual capacitances. This result is intuitive as well - the capacitors in parallel can be regarded as a single capacitor whose plate area is equal to the sum of plate areas of individual capacitors.
When 4, 5, 6 or even more capacitors are connected together the total capacitance of the circuit CT would still be the sum of all the individual capacitors added together and as we know now, the total capacitance of a parallel circuit is always greater than the highest value capacitor.
