- Abstract
The work is devoted to modeling of flows of the charged particles in an electrostatic field arising in the course of electrolysis between a surface of the cathode and the anode. Such researches have great value for increase of efficiency of metallurgical processes in particular, electrolytic refinement of copper and other metals. Besides, modeling of electrostatic fields between surfaces of electrodes, helps to investigate the nature of interaction of the cathode with the anode. The mixed method of particles adapted for modeling of the migratory diffusion of a stream of ions in the course of electrolytic refinement is given in the article. At the Eulerian stage potentials of an electrostatic field are modelled by means of Maxwell’s equations. At the Lagrangian stage laws of movement and a trajectory of ions in the form of the square-law splines are developed. The results of computer modeling for the electrolytic refinement of copper are given.
