BUS ARRANGEMENT OF LENGTHWAY LOCATED ALUMINUM ELECTROLYSERS Russian patent published in 2008 - IPC C25C3/16 

FIELD: metallurgy.

SUBSTANCE: invention concerns nonferrous-metals industry. Particularly it concerns electrolytic receiving of aluminum in electrolysers, located in body lengthwise in two-lane and joint to each other as series electric circuit. Bus arrangement of concatenated electrolyzers contains two risers, located at electrolyser input riser, two of other risers located at electrolyser target butt end. Current from cathode rods group nearby target butt end of electrolyser is passed on the nearest to adjacent row electrolyser longitudinal side from the opposite side by means of bus which is located between electrolysers perpendicularly to longitudinal axis and then - parallel to longitudinal axis of electrolyser, and in space between target butt end of each cathode cover of previous and input butt end of cathode cover of next electrolyser. Compensation of adjacent row is provided by current passing lengthwise longitudinal side of electrolyser only on the side which is located closer to adjacent row of electrolysers. It is provided electrolysers' productivity gain of high unit capacity at high compensation factor of electromagnetic forces in electrolyte pot and high MHD-stability of electrolyser.

EFFECT: productivity of electrolysers gain of high unit capacity at high compensation factor of electromagnetic forces in electrolyte pot and high MHD-stability of electrolyser.
