I have a ParaView plugin which creates a StructuredGrid, reading the
regularly spaced R, Theta and Phi increments and the 3-D solution arrays
from an HDF5 file. It implements the correct transformation of vectors
from spherical to cartesian space. Contact me off the mailing list if
interested in the source code.
