Abstract:The Navier-Stokes equation with the "k-ε" two-equation turbulence model was employed to describethree-dimension flow of melt in aluminum electrolysis cells. For a 160 kA cell with two current risers, the source, i.e. the electromagnetic force, in the momentum equations was solved based on the simulation results of magnetic andtemperature fields. Numerical simulation on the three-dimension steady-state flow of melt was carried out. The re-sults obtained about the velocities of molten metal on different planes, the metal/bath interface shape and the elec-tromagnetic force distribution, were analyzed. An iron rod dissolution technique, which is based on the rate of dis-solution of iron rods inserted into the melt, was used to measure the velocities of metal pad. The simulation andmeasurement show that there are two interaction vortexes in horizontal direction. The predictions are in well agree-ment with the measured results for flow pattern and velocities. It is worthwhile that in the three-dimension simula-tion, there is also a little change of metal velocities from level to level due to the difference of horizontal current oneach level.
Keywords:aluminum electrolysis cell  turbulent flow  numerical simulation  iron rod dissolution technique
