Wire Cell is an algorithm that can be used to reconstruct neutrino interactions in liquid argon time projection chamber (LArTPC) detectors in which the charge readout is performed by wire planes. We have performed simulations using this reconstruction algorithm for the general case of arbitrary number of wire planes with user defined geometry. We use our simulation to calculate efficiency and purity of the reconstruction for some sample charge distributions that might result from neutrino interactions. This calculation is performed while varying detector parameters such as the wire pitch, the number of wire planes, and the wire plane angles to understand the optimum configuration.
