Hello,

I would like to know the calculation methods for the magnitude of the electrical field and the voltage along a line.

In my situation, I want to know the field in each part of my insulation system, but I also need to know what/how the distance is taken into account in the electric field, and if could change it.

Thank you for the help

Hi Lucie,

You can plot a fields quantity (Mag_E, Voltage ...) along a line following these steps:

1/ Go to Maxwell 3D/ Results/ Create Fields Plot/ Rectangular Plot

2/ In the field “Geometry” select the line and in “Points” select the number of points that define your line (the default number is 101)

3/ In the field “Category” select “Calculator Expressions”

4/ In the field “Quantity” select “Mag_E” to plot the electric field magnitude or the desired quantity

4/ Select “New Report”
