Paper abstract bibtex

A finite element model of a cathode assembly including a copper insert inside the collector bar was developed. This thermo-electro-mechanical model includes interfaces to simulate the contact between different materials. In order to optimize this model, the authors propose an economic analysis based on the electrical operating cost, the relining cost and the life expectancy of a cell. The geometry of the model is subsequently varied in order to generate a multidimensional response surface based on these economic criteria. Results indicate that substantial economies could be achieved by reducing the resistivity of the collector bar and improving contact at the interface. Also, this model provides some insight in the contact between the different materials of the cathode assembly and its effect on cell performance.
