Plotting electric field in 3D

i have tried to plot the electric field in 3D, but always only obtain a 2D version of it.

Is there any way that i can plot vector fields in 3D, for example that i can see the vector lines getting out of the source (anodes in my case) and arriving to the sink (cathodes in my case)?

i have attached three graphs, one for the case of the electric field at the anode location, one for the case at middle point between anodes and cathodes and one close the cathode.

i would like to know if i can have a 3D version, which will be more self explanatory for the client.

thanks you in advance,

Regards

Maybe you can do something with this (not written by me).

Please attach your Mathcad worksheet to message (by using "Use advanced editor").

Vladimir,

please, see attachment.

i have reduced the actual calculation sheet to the minimum that i think is relevant to answer the question.

Please, let me know if this is enough.

thank you in advance,

This is pretty good.

I will have to study this file for a little while before i can do something with it .

But thank you very much.

to all,

i tried to work the same problem about the electric field calculation in Prime 3.1, but, when i convert the MCad 15 file to 3.1 prime, the following message appears at the bottom left side of the 2D graph that came from the Mcad 15 file: "Vector field plots are not supported in the current version of PTC mathcad"

any comments about this?
