Asymmetry of Electric Field Streamlines

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Good afternoon all,

I'm currently working on a project involving the electrostatic potential between two electrodes.
Once computed and rendered, the electric field lines show an asymmetry in their presentation: that is, the field lines don't *look* computationally wrong, they just aren't symmetric across axes. A picture showing the asymmetry across the X- and Z- axes is attached below.

While I'm fairly confident the solution is correct, rendered images of the project will eventually be presented, and I'd like them to look as great as they can. (Which reminds me of a minor follow-up question: does anyone have any tips, small or big, on making the final renders look at great as possible, similar to Comsol's amazing renders (i.e. www.comsol.com/showroom/gallery/15/)?)

Thank you all very much for your time. I'm very new to Comsol, so any help is appreciated.

Best wishes,
Daniel
