Simulation of Electrodeposition of Al from Ionic Liquid

Article Preview

Abstract:

Galvanic deposition of Aluminium on steel substrate, starting from liquid ions, is considered. How the agitation of the liquid during deposition influences the homogeneity of the developed coating layer is investigated by a commercially available FLUENT® ANSYS® solver. Comparison of data coming from numerical simulation with experimentally obtained results are presented. The reported results demonstrate that the deposition process parameter influences the quality of the deposited aluminium.
