GEAR TO SUPPLY POWER TO ALUMINUM ELECTROLYZERS CONNECTED IN SERIES Russian patent published in 2002 - IPC

FIELD: non-ferrous metallurgy. SUBSTANCE: invention specifically refers to electrolytic winning of aluminum in electrolyzers arranged in housing lengthwise in two rows and connected in series electric network. Technical result of invention lies in development of magnetically, hydraulically and dynamically stable electrolyzer thanks to effective compensation for harmful effect of adjacent row of electrolyzers and favorable distribution of magnetic field in melt which has minimal negative impact on technological process. This technical result is achieved as compensation bus rounds electrolyzer over perimeter on side of input butt and is connected with input end to part of cathode rods located on side opposite to adjacent row of electrolyzers and with output end to upright positioned in input butt on side opposite to adjacent row of electrolyzer next in series. EFFECT: development of electrolyzer stable magnetically, hydraulically and dynamically. 1 cl, 2 dwg
