The whole aluminum electrolysis cell was treated as a resistance circuit, and the dynamic simulation of the cell equivalent circuit was modeled with Matlab/Simulink simulation software. The time-series signals of cell voltage and anode current were obtained under different bubble conditions, and analyzed by spectral and statistical analysis methods. The simulation results show that higher bubble release frequency has a significant effect on the cell voltage oscillations. When the bubble coverage of one anode block exceeds 80%, the cell voltage may exceed its normal fluctuation amplitude. The simulation also proves that the anode effect detected by computer in actual production is mainly the whole cell anode effect.展开更多

The effects of substrate resistivity and inductor spiral length on the substrate eddy and distribution effects are captured. The substrate eddy influence factors of an inductor (6 turn, 3 060 μm in length) fabricated on low ( 1 Ω. cm) and high resistivity( 1 000 Ω.cm) silicon substrates are 0. 3 and 0. 04, and the distribution-effects- occurring frequencies are 1.8 GHz and 14. 5 GHz, respectively. The measurement results show that the equivalent circuit model of the inductor on low resistivity silicon must take into consideration substrate eddy effects and distribution effects. However, the circuit model of the inductor on high resistivity silicon cannot take into account the substrate eddy effects and the distribution effects at the frequencies of interest. Its simple model shows agreement with the measurements, and the contrast is within 7%.展开更多
