We have an exciting announcement about badges coming in May 2025. Until then, we will temporarily stop issuing new badges for course completions and certifications. However, all completions will be recorded and fulfilled after May 2025.

  The things now I create a box and assign it as an Oil, and create two hemisphere electrode to act as the ASTM D1816 test method. In the Simulation, I set one side of the electrode is 60kv another side is 0kv because I want to see the breakdown voltage occurs or not but the things is I want to see the Electric field. I got do two version for seeing the Electric field can help me see it the way that I set for investigate the Electric filed correct or not? Or you got a way to see the Electric field faster

  Hi
  I would suggest to post this in the Electronics forum (this forum is for SC and Discovery mainly and 3D CAD design).
  All the best

  how to plot it i just right click the sheet and choose field only. The things that i want to ask is it correct to determine the elecfield like that?? Or should i change a way to do it? The electric field that i want to see is between this two electrode when the breakdown voltage occurs

    This works! You can also select the XY/YZ/XZ plane and plot it on to see a larger area.
