In this paper a mathematic model of 3KA rare earth electrolysis cell was developed by using the finite-element analysis software ANSYS WORKBENCH to analyze the impact of several different common anode carbon block material on the electric filed of rare earth electrolysis cell. Calculation results show that melt voltage of semi-graphitic, semi-graphitized and graphitized anode carbon block are 5.8575V, 5.7699V, 5.6791V. Through the comprehensive consolidation, choosing graphitized electrode can reduce costs and improve the overall economic benefits of rare earth industry.
