Abstract
The computer model described in this paper calculates magnetic fields in electrolytic cells from an input of constructional data and known current distribution. Conventional formulas are used for the magnetic field from the current carrying system of the cell and its surroundings. A special method has been developed for the representation of steel parts in the model, in order to include their magnetic effect with reasonable accuracy. Principles are described and examples of calculations are given.
