FIELD: metallurgy.SUBSTANCE: on hearth surface placed are baffles and/or grates, and/or open-pore cellular structures wetted by aluminium made of material with lower electric conductivity compared with that of aluminium perpendicular and/or at 45°-90° to heart surface, perpendicular and/or at 45°-90° to lengthwise axis of cathode rods preventing partially or completely the flow of horizontal components of cathode currents in aluminium layer along the hearth. Electrolytic cell can operate with consumable or nonconsumable anodes, that is, "inert" anodes.EFFECT: uniform current distribution, smaller electrode gap, lower power consumption, higher yield.15 cl, 5 dwg |
