Abstract
The numerical treatment of unbounded electrostatic field problems can be conveniently integrated in standard FE codes for bounded problems, by using charge iteration, an efficient, N-dimensional FE procedure re cently presented by the authors. In this paper its convergence charact eristics (accuracy and number of iteration steps) are investigated. Co mparisons with known analytical solutions are used in order to assess the precision achievable.
