Abstract

A mathematical theory and the software application based on the full MHD model of the electrolysis cell is used to predict the electric current distribution over the anodes from the measurement of magnetic fields at specifically defined node points assumed to be available from the wireless sensors. The full 3d busbar configuration of two different commercial cells are used for the model simulations. It is demonstrated that a unique solution for the electric current can be obtained when two sensors per each anode are used to detect the single component of magnetic field. The mathematical software is tested for the sensitivity to the busbar configuration complexity. The ability to monitor continuously the electric current distribution to high accuracy helps to control disturbances and deviations from a normal production process.
