Uh, I don't know, but you could create some by solving the corresponding vector differential equation system with given initial conditions (starting points for the streamlines). This also suggests why there may not be a suitable function for creating streamlines: It is hard to know what initial conditions to automatically pick for drawing streamlines without knowing what happens to all the paths (for instance: does one stream line pass very close to the starting point of another, making the graph hard to read?)
