A Charge Simulation Method for the Calculation of High Voltage Fields

Abstract
A numerical method for the computation of electrostatic fields is described. The basis of the method is the use of fictitious line charges as particular solutions of Laplace's and Poisson's equations. Details are given of a digital computer program developed for field calculations by means of this method, and its application is illustrated by practical examples involving two-and three-dimensional geometries.
