室温下,在有机玻璃容器中以水、硅油和氩气建立冷模实验体系,研究高温下镁电解槽内氯化物熔盐、液镁及高温氯气的流动特性。按照相似性准则,有机玻璃容器的尺寸设计为工业电解槽的1/5;根据氯气析出速度调节氩气流速;根据动力学黏度以及密度关系(p1-p2)/(pl+p2)选择硅油和水模拟高温熔盐和液态镁。在冷模实验中,详细考察了电解槽的几何参数和物性对电流效率以及镁收集率的影响,发现随着阴极高度的增大,电流效率降低;镁收集率随气泡尺寸变化不大,但随着气体流速增大而增大。
A cold model experiment, consisting of water, was built to simulate the flow characteristics of chloride temperature. In terms of similarity criteria, the organic silicon oil and argon system in organic glass vessel melts, liquid magnesium and chlorine gas at high glass vessel dimension was designed according to 1 : 5 ratio to an original model, the argon gas velocity was adjusted according to the chlorine release rate. The density relationship of silicon oil and water (p1-p2)/(p1+p2 ) were maintained the close as that of chloride melts and magnesium. As the cathode height increasing, the efficiency decreased. The efficiency doesn 't change with different bubble size, however, it increases with the flow rate increasing.
