Abstract :
Harmful substances emitting from aluminum electrolysis process may pollute the environment. Ventilation is the effective means to control the hazards. In order to obtain the best ventilation effect for 300kA aluminum electrolysis plant, CFD method is used to simulate and optimize the workshop ventilation. Based on theoretical analysis and preliminary calculation, a 3D model is built, five kinds of design options are simulated with CFD method. By comparing the calculation result, the optimal geometry design is found. The simulation results are applied to help plant design, satisfied results are obtained.
