Mushroom electrodes - QuickField simulation example

This electrode system consists of two arbitrarily positioned electrodes in 3D space. The geometry model is created in CAD system and then imported to QuickField in STEP format. Three-dimensional electric field distribution around two arbitrarily positioned mushroom-shaped electrodes under the specified potential difference.

Engineering question
