Abstract

An Ampere force acts in the rotating electrochemical cell, which is located in the magnetic field. This force causes an electrolyte flow directed oppositely to the direction of cell rotation. The effect of Ampere force on the distribution of hydrodynamic velocity in the gap between two cylindrical electrodes of rotating cell is theoretically analyzed. Under certain simplifying assumptions, an equation is obtained for calculating the current passing in the cell by action of potential difference, which arises in the cell due to the Lorentz force taking into account the Ampere force.
