The use of floating bipolar electrodes in electrowinning cells of copper constitutes a nonconventional technology that promises economic and operational impacts. This thesis presents a computational tool for the simulation and analysis of such electrochemical cells. A new model is developed for floating electrodes and a method of finite difference is used to obtain the threedimensional distribution of the potential and the field of current density inside the cell. The analysis of the results is based on a technique for the interactive visualization of three-dimensional vectorial fields as lines of flow.
