  • $\begingroup$ Does RevolutionPlot3D[{2 + Cos[t] + Sin[t], t, Sin[10 t]}, {t, 0, 2 Pi}] give what you need? $\endgroup$ Commented Oct 1, 2014 at 8:00
  • $\begingroup$ I don't think so. The plot should be a curve. $\endgroup$ Commented Oct 1, 2014 at 8:01
  • $\begingroup$ ... or ParametricPlot3D[{2 + Cos[t] + Sin[t], t, Sin[10 t]}, {t, 0, 2 Pi}]? $\endgroup$ Commented Oct 1, 2014 at 8:04

    $\begingroup$ I found in documentation that ParametricPlot3D treats the first three slots as x, y and z variables. But my problem is parametrized r, theta and phi. $\endgroup$ Commented Oct 1, 2014 at 8:06
