Abstract :
An approximate method is given for evaluating the maximum field strength between charged circular cylinders whose axes are either parallel or perpendicular. The approximate formula is compared with exact results and shows an error of less than ¿% for a separation of one diameter. If the error in the approximate formula for crossed cylinders is of the same order, then the difference between the results for the crossed and parallel cases is significantly greater than this error.
