The detailed simulation of electron drifting in the MPD TPC was made with CERN Garfield toolkit for the simulation of gas particle detectors. For electron transporting, the 10% Ar + 90% CH4 gas mixture with impact of corresponding magnetic and electric fields from MPD TPC Technical Design Report (rev. 07) were used. Ionization processes were investigated in a wire planes area near Read-Out Chambers of the TPC. The Read-Out Chambers were modelled with some different values of gating grid voltage.
