Over the last ten years, the industry standard for modeling aluminum reduction cell energy balance went gradually from 2D “in-house” codes to 3D commercial codes, like the ANSYS® finite element code. In this transition, many different modeling tools have been developed: 3D cathode slice, half anode, full cell slice, cathode corner/quarter and full cell corner/quarter models.In this paper, advantages and disadvantages of each of those 3D models as well as basic assumptions are reviewed and the 2D model is revisited to introduce a new improved approach.
