Embodiment Construction

[0020] Please refer to figure 1 , figure 2 , image 3 , The present invention is an all-vanadium redox flow battery electrode. The electrode is composed of graphite felt 1, which is polyacrylonitrile graphite felt. The graphite felt 1 is square, and the thickness of the graphite felt 1 is H. A plurality of longitudinal flow channels 2 for transporting electrolyte are opened on the surface of the graphite felt 1. Each flow channel 2 is a direct flow channel, and the width of each flow channel 2 It is C, the depth is D, the flow channels 2 are equally spaced, and the distance is L.

[0021] Three examples are listed below. The three examples all use graphite felt 1 as an electrode and are assembled with a perfluorinated ion membrane to form an all-vanadium redox flow battery. The charge and discharge test is carried out using a vanadium ion electrolyte with a concentration of 2mol / L. The specific test results are as follows table:
