LES Turbulence Modeling Approach for Molten Aluminium and Electrolyte Flow in Aluminum Electrolysis Cell [link]Paper  abstract   bibtex   
In a Hall-Héroult electrolysis cell for aluminum production, understanding hydrodynamic phenomena induced by the magnetic field is very important for process stability and performance. The mathematical modeling of the flow of liquid aluminum and the electrolytic bath under operational conditions involves solving two systems of equations for two immiscible stratified fluids where the movement is primarily due to the anodic bubles and the electromagnetic forces. Because of the flow recirculation, dissimilar cell length scales in three directions and the magnetic field effects, the turbulence estimation for flow modeling is not straightforward. In this study, numerical simulations are conducted in order to investigate the applicability of Large Eddy Simulation turbulence models to adequately represent the magnetohydrodynamic turbulence in the electrolysis cell.
