- the electrolysis takes place in a temperature range of approximately 940 - 970 ° C.
- the electrolyte becomes poor in aluminum oxide.
- aluminum oxide in the electrolyte there is an anode effect, which results in an increase in the voltage from, for example, 4-5 V to 30 V and above.
- the aluminum oxide concentration must be increased by adding new alumina.
- the ohmic resistance from the cathode bars to the anodes of the follow-up cell causes energy losses in the order of up to 1 kWh / kg of aluminum produced. It has therefore been repeatedly tried to optimize the arrangement of the busbars with respect to the ohmic resistance.
- the vertical components of magnetic induction formed must also be taken into account, which - together with the horizontal current density components - generate a force field in the liquid metal obtained through the reduction process.
- the electrical direct current is supplied from the K ohleboden the cell embedded cathode bars collected and occurs with respect to the general current direction generally from the upstream and downstream lying ends.
- the iron cathode bars are connected to aluminum busbars via flexible straps.
- the busbars which are usually combined to form busbars, direct the direct current into the area of the subsequent cell, where the current is led via other flexible belts and via risers to the crossmember carrying the anodes.
- the Steiglei Depending on the type of cell, the lines are electrically conductively connected to the front and / or one long side of the traverse.
- GB-PS 1 032 810 discloses within the scope of an invention which relates to cell encapsulation that the busbars can be arranged below the electrolysis cell. According to FIG. 2, current guides 135 are guided symmetrically below the cell with respect to the transverse direction of the furnace and fed symmetrically into the traverse of the subsequent cell.
- a rail guide is sought with which the magnetic effects are not increased if the current strength is increased.
- part of the current exiting the cathode bar ends upstream, but less than half, is carried out under the cell.
- the rest of the current emerging upstream from the cathode bar ends is concentrated around the end faces of the cell.
- the current under the cell through leading conductors in the middle of the electrolytic cell and are designed as busbars.
- the feed into the traverse of the subsequent cell is symmetrical with respect to the furnace cross axis at four points on the longitudinal side of the traverse.
- a ucn US Pat. No. 4,313,811 relates to a rail arrangement for guiding the direct electrical current from the cathode bar ends of a transversely placed electrolytic cell to the traverse of the subsequent cell.
- the rails connected to the upstream cathode bar ends are alternately arranged individually under the electrolysis cell and in packets around the electrolysis cell.
- the alternating groups consist of 1 - 5 rails, preferably about a quarter of the total current is carried out under the electrolysis cell.
- Asymmetry is understood to mean the difference between the currents flowing around the two end faces, expressed in% of the total current flowing from the upstream cathode bar ends.
- the group of rails passing through in the middle cell area is preferably connected to 15-30% of the upstream cathode bar ends.
- the group arranged in the middle cell area is shifted by 3 - 30%, preferably 3 - 20%, with respect to the transverse cell axis, by guide rails under the electrolysis cell, namely from the neighboring cell row, which the electrical DC current leads the way.
- the busbars connected to the other cathode bar ends arranged on the upstream side lead around the respectively closer face of the electrolysis cell if they lead past the busbars leading under the electrolysis cell in the longitudinal direction of the cell. In other words, the entire current that emerges from the upstream cathode bars and does not flow under the electrolysis cell is never conducted around the same end face. As a result, more current is conducted around the face of the electrolytic cell that is closer to the neighboring cell row. The asymmetry thus generated compensates for the harmful magnetic influences of the neighboring cell row.
- the group of busbars which pass through the electrolysis cell and are located in the middle cell area are arranged symmetrically with respect to the cell transverse axis.
- the asymmetry is generated in that 3-35%, preferably 3-20%, of the cathode bar ends facing away from the neighboring cell row and located immediately next to the group of busbars leading through the electrolysis cell are connected to at least one busbar which is around the "wrong" end face of the electrolytic cell.
- the expression “wrong” means that this busbar (s) runs in the longitudinal direction of the cell under the electrolysis cell group of busbars passed through and thus generates the asymmetry / s. All of the busbars connected to the remaining, upstream cathode bar ends run normally around the respectively closer face of the electrolysis cell, without passing in the longitudinal direction of the group of busbars leading through the electrolysis cell.
- the two variants described above can be combined with one another.
- the group of conductors located under the electrolysis cell in the middle cell area can normally be displaced by 3 to 30% or somewhat less, for example by 3 to 27%, preferably by 3 to 17 % , in the direction pointing away from the neighboring cell row.
- the number of cathode bar ends located upstream, which are directly next to the group arranged in the central cell area, on its side facing away from the neighboring cell row, with at least one end face facing the neighboring cell row are connected to the busbar leading around the electrolysis cell, normally left at 3 - 35% or appropriately reduced somewhat, preferably to 3 - 20%.
- the risers which take up the entire electrical current from the upstream and downstream cathode bar ends, preferably open laterally into the traverse of the subsequent cell, i.e. in the long side.
- the connection of the two outer risers is preferably at least 5%, based on the length of the crossbar, displaced inwards from the end face.
- the risers expediently 3-4, are expediently guided symmetrically with respect to the transverse cell axis to the traverse of the following cell.
- cathode bars In the electrolytic cell 10 of FIG. 1 there are 24 cathode bars with cathode bar ends upstream and downstream 14 with respect to the general current direction I. These iron cathode bar ends 12, 14 are connected to aluminum rails, which conduct the current to the traverse 16 of the subsequent cell.
- busbars 18 are passed under the electrolytic cell. These busbars 18 are in relation to the cell transverse axis Q, i.e. the symmetrical position by two cathode bars in the direction of the end face 20 of the electrolytic cell 10 facing away from the neighboring cell row. In the present example, 16.7% of the current emerging from the upstream cathode bar ends 12 is conducted through individual conductor rails 18 under the electrolysis cell 10.
- the current from 12 cathode bar ends flows over the busbars 24, which are guided around the end face 22 of the electrolysis cell 10 facing the row of neighboring cells.
- only the current of 8 cathode bar ends ends over the busbars 26, which are guided around the end face 20 of the electrolysis cell 10 facing away from the neighboring cell row. This asymmetry of 4 is caused by a shift of the group G by 8.3%.
- the busbars 24, 26 merge with busbars from the downstream cathode bar ends 14 and lead to the traverse 16 in four risers 28, 30, 32, 34 arranged symmetrically with respect to the cell transverse axis Q. the following cell 36. They open into the longitudinal sides of the cross member 16, the outer risers 28, 34 are each indented by about 10%, based on the total cross member length, from the end face thereof.
- the group G of the four under the electrolysis cell is guided symmetrically with respect to the cell transverse axis Q by leading conductor rails 18. As in FIG. 1, they carry out 16.7% of the current emerging from the upstream cathode bar ends 12 under the electrolysis cell.
- the asymmetry is generated in that the current from two upstream cathode bar ends 12 is guided by a bus bar 38 in the longitudinal direction of the electrolytic cell 10 past the group G to the "wrong" end face 22 of the electrolytic cell 10.
- These current rails 24 (which also contain the current of the current rail 38) lead around the end face 22 facing the row of adjacent cells and conduct the current from 12 cathode bar ends located upstream.
- the busbars 26 leading around the end face 20 facing away from the neighboring cell row on the other hand, only conduct the current from 8 cathode bar ends located upstream. This results in an asymmetry of 4.
- the riser lines 28, 30, 32, 34 arranged in accordance with FIG. 1 conduct the direct electrical current into two branches of the traverse 16 of the following cell 36.
- busbars 18 In the case of the busbars 18, it is essential that they are carried out individually under the electrolysis cell in accordance with the distance between the cathode bars.

Description
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft eine asymmetrische Schienenanordnung zum Leiten des elektrischen Gleichstromes von den Kathodenbarrenenden einer quergestellten Aluminiumschmelzflusselektrolysezelle zur Traverse der Folgezelle wobei ein Teil der mit den stromauf liegenden Kathodenbarrenenden verbundenen Stromschienen unter der Elektrolysezelle durch führt.The present invention relates to an asymmetrical rail arrangement for guiding the direct electrical current from the cathode bar ends of a transverse aluminum melt flow electrolysis cell to the traverse of the follow-up cell, part of the busbars connected to the upstream cathode bar ends passing under the electrolysis cell.
Für die Gewinnung von Aluminium durch Schmelzflusselektrolyse von Aluminiumoxid wird dieses in einer Fluoridschmelze gelöst, die zum grössten Teil aus Kryolith besteht. Das kathodisch abgeschiedene Aluminium sammelt sich unter der Fluoridschmelze auf dem Kohleboden der Elektrolysezelle, wobei die Oberfläche des flüssigen Aluminiums die Kathode bildet. In die Schmelze tauchen von oben Anoden ein, die bei konventionellen Verfahren aus amorphem Kohlenstoff bestehen. An den Kohleanoden entsteht durch die elektrolytische Zersetzung des Aluminiumoxids Sauerstoff, der sich mit dem Kohlenstoff der Anoden zu C02 und CO verbindet.For the production of aluminum by melt flow electrolysis of aluminum oxide, this is dissolved in a fluoride melt, which consists largely of cryolite. The cathodically deposited aluminum collects under the fluoride melt on the carbon base of the electrolytic cell, the surface of the liquid aluminum forming the cathode. Anodes which consist of amorphous carbon in conventional processes are immersed in the melt. At the carbon anodes, the electrolytic decomposition of the aluminum oxide produces oxygen, which combines with the carbon of the anodes to form CO 2 and CO.
Die Elektrolyse findet in einem Temperaturbereich von etwa 940 - 970°C statt. Im Laufe der Elektrolyse verarmt der Elektrolyt an Aluminiumoxid. Bei einer unteren Konzentration von 1 - 2 Gew.-% Aluminiumoxid im Elektrolyten kommt es zum Anodeneffekt, der sich in einer Erhöhung der Spannung von beispielsweise 4 - 5 V auf 30 V und darüber auswirkt. Spätestens dann muss die Aluminiumoxidkonzentration durch Zugabe von neuer Tonerde angehoben werden.The electrolysis takes place in a temperature range of approximately 940 - 970 ° C. In the course of electrolysis, the electrolyte becomes poor in aluminum oxide. At a lower concentration of 1-2% by weight aluminum oxide in the electrolyte, there is an anode effect, which results in an increase in the voltage from, for example, 4-5 V to 30 V and above. Then, at the latest, the aluminum oxide concentration must be increased by adding new alumina.
Im Kohleboden der Elektrolysezelle sind Kathodenbarren eingebettet, wobei deren Enden die Seitenwandung der aus Stahlwanne, Isolationsschicht und Kohlenstoffauskleidung bestehenden Elektrolysewanne auf beiden Seiten durchgreifen.In K ohleboden the electrolytic cell are embedded cathode bars, the ends of which extend through the side wall of the tub made of steel, insulating layer and carbon lining electrolysis bath on both sides.
Durch den ohmschen Widerstand von den Kathodenbarren bis zu den Anoden der Folgezelle werden Energieverluste verursacht, die in der Grössenordnung von bis zu 1 kWh/kg produziertes Aluminium liegen. Es ist deshalb wiederholt v-r-sucht worden, die Anordnung der Stromschienen in bezug auf den ohmschen Widerstand zu optimalisieren. Dabei müssen jedoch auch die gebildeten Vertikalkomponenten der magnetischen Induktion berücksichtigt werden, welche - zusammen mit den horizontalen Stromdichtekomponenten - im durch den Reduktionsprozess gewonnenen flüssigen Metall ein Kraftfeld erzeugen.The ohmic resistance from the cathode bars to the anodes of the follow-up cell causes energy losses in the order of up to 1 kWh / kg of aluminum produced. It has therefore been repeatedly tried to optimize the arrangement of the busbars with respect to the ohmic resistance. However, the vertical components of magnetic induction formed must also be taken into account, which - together with the horizontal current density components - generate a force field in the liquid metal obtained through the reduction process.
In einer Aluminiumhütte mit in Reihen angeordneten, quergestellten Elektrolysezellen erfolgt die Stromführung von Zelle zu Zelle folgendermassen: Der elektrische Gleichstrom wird von im Kohleboden der Zelle eingebetteten Kathodenbarren gesammelt und tritt in bezug auf die allgemeine Strom- richtung in der Regel aus den stromauf und stromab liegenden Enden aus. Die eisernen Kathodenbarren sind über flexible Bänder mit Stromschienen aus Aluminium verbunden. Die üblicherweise zu Sammelschienen zusammengefassten Stromschienen führen den Gleichstrom in den Bereich der Folgezelle, wo der Strom über andere flexible Bänder und über Steigleitungen zu der die Anoden tragenden Traverse geführt wird. Die Steigleitungen sind je nach Zellentyp mit den Stirn- und/oder einer Längsseite der Traverse elektrisch leitend verbunden.In a smelter with in rows arranged transversely placed electrolysis cells is carried out as follows to cell, the flow guide of cell: The electrical direct current is supplied from the K ohleboden the cell embedded cathode bars collected and occurs with respect to the general current direction generally from the upstream and downstream lying ends. The iron cathode bars are connected to aluminum busbars via flexible straps. The busbars, which are usually combined to form busbars, direct the direct current into the area of the subsequent cell, where the current is led via other flexible belts and via risers to the crossmember carrying the anodes. The Steiglei Depending on the type of cell, the lines are electrically conductively connected to the front and / or one long side of the traverse.
Diese für Aluminiumhütten charakteristischen Schienenführungen weisen jedoch sowohl elektrische als auch magnetische Unannehmlichkeiten auf, die nach mehreren Vorveröffentlichungen zu beheben versucht worden sind.However, these rail guides, which are characteristic of aluminum smelters, have both electrical and magnetic inconveniences, which attempts have been made to remedy after several previous publications.
In der GB-PS 1 032 810 wird im Rahmen einer Erfindung, welche die Zellenkapselung betrifft, offenbart, dass die Stromschienen unterhalb der Elektrolysezelle angeordnet werden können. Nach Fig. 2 werden Stromführungen 135 in bezug auf die Ofenquerrichtung symmetrisch unter der Zelle durch geführt und symmetrisch in die Traverse der Folgezelle eingespeist.GB-
Nach der US-PS 3 415 724 wird eine Schienenführung angestrebt, mit welcher die magnetischen Effekte nicht erhöht werden, wenn die Stromstärke erhöht wird. Zu diesem Zweck wird ein Teil des stromauf aus den Kathodenbarrenenden austretenden Stromes, jedoch weniger als die Hälfte, unter der Zelle durch geführt. Der übrige, stromauf aus den Kathodenbarrenenden austretende Strom wird konzentriert um die Stirnseiten der Zelle herum geführt. Nach Fig. 3 liegen die den Strom unter der Zelle durch führenden Leiter in der Mitte der Elektrolysezelle und sind als Sammelschienen ausgebildet. Die Einspeisung in die Traverse der Folgezelle erfolgt in bezug auf die Ofenquerachse symmetrisch an vier Stellen der Traversenlängsseite.According to US Pat. No. 3,415,724, a rail guide is sought with which the magnetic effects are not increased if the current strength is increased. For this purpose, part of the current exiting the cathode bar ends upstream, but less than half, is carried out under the cell. The rest of the current emerging upstream from the cathode bar ends is concentrated around the end faces of the cell. According to Fig. 3, the current under the cell through leading conductors in the middle of the electrolytic cell and are designed as busbars. The feed into the traverse of the subsequent cell is symmetrical with respect to the furnace cross axis at four points on the longitudinal side of the traverse.
Aucn die US-PS 4 313 811 hat eine Schienenanordnung zum Leiten des elektrischen Gleichstromes von den Kathodenbarrenenden einer quergestellen Elektrolysezelle zur Traverse der Folgezelle zum Gegenstand. Die mit den stromauf liegenden Kathodenbarrenenden verbundenen Schienen sind alternierend einzeln unter der Elektrolysezelle durch und paketweise um die Elektrolysezelle herum angeordnet. Die alternierenden Gruppen bestehen aus 1 - 5 Schienen, vorzugsweise wird etwa ein Viertel des gesamten Stromes unter der Elektrolysezelle durch geführt. A ucn US Pat. No. 4,313,811 relates to a rail arrangement for guiding the direct electrical current from the cathode bar ends of a transversely placed electrolytic cell to the traverse of the subsequent cell. The rails connected to the upstream cathode bar ends are alternately arranged individually under the electrolysis cell and in packets around the electrolysis cell. The alternating groups consist of 1 - 5 rails, preferably about a quarter of the total current is carried out under the electrolysis cell.
Obwohl insbesondere nach der letztgenannten Veröffentlichung die magnetischen und elektrischen Unannehmlichkeiten weitgehend beseitigt werden können, haben sich die Erfinder die Aufgabe gestellt, für quergestellte Aluminiumschmelzflusselektrolysezellen eine Schienenanordnung zu schaffen, bei welcher die Investitionskosten und die Stromausbeute bei praktisch vernachlässigbaren magnetischen und elektrischen Effekten weiter optimalisiert sind.Although the magnetic and electrical inconveniences can be largely eliminated, in particular after the last-mentioned publication, the inventors have set themselves the task of creating a rail arrangement for transverse aluminum melt flow electrolysis cells in which the investment costs and the current efficiency are further optimized with practically negligible magnetic and electrical effects.
Die Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäss dadurch gelöst, dass die Schienenkonfiguration im kathodischen Teil der Elektrolysezelle
- - eine Gruppe von Stromschienen, die im mittleren Zellenbereich mit 10 - 40% der stromauf liegenden Kathodenbarrenenden verbunden und einzeln unter der Elektrolysezelle durchführend angeordnet sind,
- - beidseits dieser Gruppe von Stromschienen paketweise um die Stirnseiten der Elektrolysezelle herum führende, mit den restlichen stromauf liegenden Kathodenbarrenenden verbundene Stromschienen, und
- - in 2 bis 6 Steigleitungen übergehende, den gesamten elektrischen Strom von stromauf und stromab liegenden Kathodenbarrenenden aufnehmenden Stromschienen
umfasst, wobei die Variation der Asymmetrie des aus den stromauf liegenden Kathodenbarrenenden austretenden Stromes zwischen 3 und 30% liegt.The object is achieved according to the invention in that the rail configuration in the cathodic part of the electrolytic cell
- a group of busbars which are connected in the middle cell area to 10-40% of the upstream cathode bar ends and are arranged individually to carry out under the electrolysis cell,
- on both sides of this group of busbars, in packets around the end faces of the electrolytic cell, leading busbars connected to the remaining upstream cathode bar ends, and
- - In 2 to 6 risers, the entire electrical current from upstream and downstream cathode bar ends receiving current rails
comprises, the variation of the asymmetry of the current emerging from the upstream cathode bar ends being between 3 and 30%.
Unter Asymmetrie wird der Unterschied der Ströme, die um die beiden Stirnseiten herum fliessen, ausgedrückt in % des gesamten aus den stromauf liegenden Kathodenbarrenenden fliessenden Stromes, verstanden.Asymmetry is understood to mean the difference between the currents flowing around the two end faces, expressed in% of the total current flowing from the upstream cathode bar ends.
Die Gruppe von im mittleren Zellenbereich unten durchführenden Schienen ist bevorzugt mit 15 - 30% der stromauf liegenden Kathodenbarrenenden verbunden.The group of rails passing through in the middle cell area is preferably connected to 15-30% of the upstream cathode bar ends.
Nach einer ersten Ausführungsform der Erfindung ist die im mittleren Zellenbereich angeordnete Gruppe von unter der Elektrolysezelle durch führenden Stromschienen in bezug auf die Zellenquerachse um 3 - 30%, vorzugsweise um 3 - 20%, verschoben, und zwar in von der Nachbarzellenreihe, welche den elektrischen Gleichstrom zurückführt, wegweisender Richtung. Die mit den übrigen, auf der stromauf liegenden Seite angeordneten Kathodenbarrenenden verbundenen Stromschienen führen um die jeweils näher liegende Stirnseite der Elektrolysezelle herum, falls sie an den unter der Elektrolysezelle durch führenden Stromschienen in Zellenlängsrichtung vorbei führen. Mit anderen Worten wird nie der gesamte Strom, der aus den stromauf liegenden Kathodenbarren austritt und nicht unter der Elektrolysezelle durch fliesst, um dieselbe Stirnseite herum geführt. Dadurch wird mehr Strom um die der Nachbarzellenreihe näher liegende Stirnseite der Elektrolysezelle herum geführt. Durch die damit erzeugte Asymmetrie werden die schädlichen magnetischen Einflüsse der Nachbarzellenreihe kompensiert.According to a first embodiment of the invention, the group arranged in the middle cell area is shifted by 3 - 30%, preferably 3 - 20%, with respect to the transverse cell axis, by guide rails under the electrolysis cell, namely from the neighboring cell row, which the electrical DC current leads the way. The busbars connected to the other cathode bar ends arranged on the upstream side lead around the respectively closer face of the electrolysis cell if they lead past the busbars leading under the electrolysis cell in the longitudinal direction of the cell. In other words, the entire current that emerges from the upstream cathode bars and does not flow under the electrolysis cell is never conducted around the same end face. As a result, more current is conducted around the face of the electrolytic cell that is closer to the neighboring cell row. The asymmetry thus generated compensates for the harmful magnetic influences of the neighboring cell row.
Nach einer weiteren Variante der Erfindung ist die im mittleren Zellenbereich liegende Gruppe von unter der Elektrolysezelle durchführenden Stromschienen in bezug auf die Zellenquerachse symmetrisch angeordnet. Die Asymmetrie wird erzeugt, indem 3 - 35%, vorzugsweise 3 - 20%, der stromauf unmittelbar neben der Gruppe von unter der Elektrolysezelle durchführenden Stromschienen liegenden, von der Nachbarzellenreihe abgewandten Kathodenbarrenenden mit mindestens einer Stromschiene verbunden sind, die um die "falsche" Stirnseite der Elektrolysezelle herumführt/en. Mit dem Ausdruck "falsch" wird ausgedrückt, dass diese Stromschiene/n in Zellenlängsrichtung an der unter der Elektrolysezelle durch geführten Gruppe von Stromschienen vorbei läuft/laufen und so die Asymmetrie erzeugt/en. Sämtliche mit den restlichen, stromauf liegenden Kathodenbarrenenden verbundenen Stromschienen laufen normal um die jeweils nähere Stirnseite der Elektrolysezelle herum, ohne in Zellenlängsrichtung an der unter der Elektrolysezelle durch führenden Gruppe von Stromschienen vorbei zu führen.According to a further variant of the invention, the group of busbars which pass through the electrolysis cell and are located in the middle cell area are arranged symmetrically with respect to the cell transverse axis. The asymmetry is generated in that 3-35%, preferably 3-20%, of the cathode bar ends facing away from the neighboring cell row and located immediately next to the group of busbars leading through the electrolysis cell are connected to at least one busbar which is around the "wrong" end face of the electrolytic cell. The expression "wrong" means that this busbar (s) runs in the longitudinal direction of the cell under the electrolysis cell group of busbars passed through and thus generates the asymmetry / s. All of the busbars connected to the remaining, upstream cathode bar ends run normally around the respectively closer face of the electrolysis cell, without passing in the longitudinal direction of the group of busbars leading through the electrolysis cell.
Die beiden vorstehend beschriebenen Varianten können miteinander kombiniert werden. Die im mittleren Zellenbereich liegende Gruppe von unter der Elektrolysezelle durch führenden Stromschienen kann normal um 3 - 30% oder etwas weniger, beispielsweise um 3 - 27%, vorzugsweise um 3 - 17%, in von der Nachbarzellenreihe wegweisender Richtung verschoben werden. Ebenso kann die Anzahl der stromauf liegenden Kathodenbarrenenden, welche unmittelbar neben der im mittleren Zellenbereich angeordneten Gruppe, auf deren von der Nachbarzellenreihe abgewandten Seite, mit mindestens einer um die der Nachbarzellenreihe zugewandte Stirnseite der Elektrolysezelle herumführenden Stromschiene verbunden sind, normal bei 3 - 35% belassen oder zweckmässig etwas reduziert werden, vorzugsweise auf 3 - 20%.The two variants described above can be combined with one another. The group of conductors located under the electrolysis cell in the middle cell area can normally be displaced by 3 to 30% or somewhat less, for example by 3 to 27%, preferably by 3 to 17 % , in the direction pointing away from the neighboring cell row. Likewise, the number of cathode bar ends located upstream, which are directly next to the group arranged in the central cell area, on its side facing away from the neighboring cell row, with at least one end face facing the neighboring cell row are connected to the busbar leading around the electrolysis cell, normally left at 3 - 35% or appropriately reduced somewhat, preferably to 3 - 20%.
Die Steigleitungen, welche den gesamten elektrischen Strom von stromauf- und stromab liegenden Kathodenbarrenenden aufnehmen, münden bevorzugt seitlich in die Traverse der Folgezelle ein, d.h. in deren Längsseite. Die Verbindung der beiden äusseren Steigleitungen ist dabei vorzugsweise mindestens 5%, bezogen auf die Länge der Traverse, von der Stirnseite nach innen verschoben.The risers, which take up the entire electrical current from the upstream and downstream cathode bar ends, preferably open laterally into the traverse of the subsequent cell, i.e. in the long side. The connection of the two outer risers is preferably at least 5%, based on the length of the crossbar, displaced inwards from the end face.
Die Steigleitungen, zweckmässig 3 - 4, werden in bezug auf die Zellenquerachse zweckmässig symmetrisch zur Traverse der Folgezelle geführt.The risers, expediently 3-4, are expediently guided symmetrically with respect to the transverse cell axis to the traverse of the following cell.
Die Erfindung wird anhand der Zeichnung näher erläutert. Es zeigen schematisch:
- Fig. 1 eine asymmetrische Schienenanordnung einer Elektrolysezelle bis zur Traverse der Folgezelle, mit vier asymmetrisch angeordneten, unter der Elektrolysezelle durch führenden Stromschienen
- Fig. 2 eine Schienenanordnung einer Elektrolysezelle bis zur Traverse der Folgezelle, mit vier symmetrisch angeordneten, unter der Zelle durch führenden Stromschienen und einer von zwei Kathodenbarrenenden gespiesenen, um die "falsche" Stirnseite herum führenden Stromschiene.
- Fig. 1 shows an asymmetrical rail arrangement of an electrolysis cell up to the traverse of the subsequent cell, with four asymmetrically arranged, under the electrolysis cell by leading conductor rails
- Fig. 2 shows a rail arrangement of an electrolysis cell up to the traverse of the subsequent cell, with four symmetrically arranged, under the cell by leading current rails and one of two cathode bar ends fed around the "wrong" front side leading current rail.
In die Elektrolysezelle 10 von Fig. 1 sind 24 Kathodenbarren mit in bezug auf die allgemeine Stromrichtung I stromauf 12 und stromab 14 liegenden Kathodenbarrenenden. Diese eisernen Kathodenbarrenenden 12, 14 sind mit Aluminiumschienen verbunden, welche den Strom zur Traverse 16 der Folgezelle führen.In the
Im mittleren Bereich der Elektrolysezelle 10 ist eine Gruppe G von vier Stromschienen 18 unter der Elektrolysezelle durch geführt. Diese Stromschienen 18 sind in bezug auf die Zellenquerachse Q, d.h. die symmetrische Position, um zwei Kathodenbarren in Richtung der von der Nachbarzellenreihe abgewandten Stirnseite 20 der Elektrolysezelle 10 verschoben. Im vorliegenden Beispiel werden also 16,7% des aus den stromauf liegenden Kathodenbarrenenden 12 austretenden Stromes über einzelne Stromschienen 18 unter der Elektrolysezelle 10 durch geführt.In the central area of the
Ueber die Stromschienen 24, welche um die der Nachbarzellenreihe zugewandte Stirnseite 22 der Elektrolysezelle 10 herum geführt werden, fliesst der Strom von 12 Kathodenbarrenenden. Ueber die Stromschienen 26 dagegen, welche um die der Nachbarzellenreihe abgewandte Stirnseite 20 der Elektrolysezelle 10 herum geführt werden, dagegen nur der Strom von 8 Kathodenbarrenenden. Diese Asymmetrie von 4 wird von einer Verschiebung der Gruppe G um 8,3% erzeugt.The current from 12 cathode bar ends flows over the
Die Stromschienen 24, 26 vereinigen sich mit Stromschienen von den stromab liegenden Kathodenbarrenenden 14 und führen in vier in bezug auf die Zellenquerachse Q symmetrisch angeordneten Steigleitungen 28, 30, 32, 34 zur Traverse 16 der Folgezelle 36. Sie münden in die Längsseiten der Traverse 16, die äusseren Steigleitungen 28, 34 sind um je etwa 10%, bezogen auf die gesamte Traversenlänge, von deren Stirnseite eingerückt.The
Bei der Schienenanordnung nach Fig. 2 liegt die Gruppe G der vier unter der Elektrolysezelle durch führenden Stromschienen 18 in bezug auf die Zellenquerachse Q symmetrisch. Sie führen, wie bei Fig. 1, 16,7% des aus den stromauf liegenden Kathodenbarrenenden 12 austretenden Stromes unter der Elektrolysezelle durch. Die Asymmetrie wird erzeugt, indem der Strom von zwei stromauf liegenden Kathodenbarrenenden 12 mittels einer Stromschiene 38 in Längsrichtung der Elektrolysezelle 10 an der Gruppe G vorbei nach der "falschen" Stirnseite 22 der Elektrolysezelle 10 geführt wird. Diese um die der Nachbarzellenreihe zugewandte Stirnseite 22 herum führenden Stromschienen 24 (welche auch den Strom der Stromschiene 38 enthalten) leiten den Strom von 12 stromauf liegenden Kathodenbarrenenden. Die um die der Nachbarzellenreihe abgewandte Stirnseite 20 herum führenden Stromschienen 26 dagegen leiten nur den Strom von 8 stromauf liegenden Kathodenbarrenenden. Damit ergibt sich eine Asymmetrie von 4.In the rail arrangement according to FIG. 2, the group G of the four under the electrolysis cell is guided symmetrically with respect to the cell transverse axis Q by leading conductor rails 18. As in FIG. 1, they carry out 16.7% of the current emerging from the upstream cathode bar ends 12 under the electrolysis cell. The asymmetry is generated in that the current from two upstream cathode bar ends 12 is guided by a
Die entsprechend von Fig. 1 angeordneten Steigleitungen 28, 30, 32, 34 leiten den elektrischen Gleichstrom in zwei Aeste der Traverse 16 der Folgezelle 36.The riser lines 28, 30, 32, 34 arranged in accordance with FIG. 1 conduct the direct electrical current into two branches of the
Bei den Stromschienen 18 ist von wesentlicher Bedeutung, dass sie einzeln, entsprechend dem Abstand der Kathodenbarren, unter der Elektrolysezelle durch geführt werden. Die Stromschienen 24, 26 dagegen können gebündelte Einzelleiter oder ein einziger Leiter mit entsprechendem Querschnitt sein.In the case of the
