Abstract

The invention relates to a bipolar plate frame and a galvanic pile of a flow battery, which belong to the field of flow batteries. The bipolar plate frame is characterized in that: labyrinth packing is formed by pressing two layers of O-shaped gasket rings which are arranged from inside to outside between an ion exchange membrane and the plate frame; an electrolyte channel and the O-shaped gasketrings are arranged on the region outside the two layers of the O-shaped gasket rings which are arranged from inside to outside; and an electrolyte groove is formed at the other side of an electrode frame opposite to the ion exchange membrane, and closely contacts the bipolar plate to form an electrolyte inlet channel or an electrolyte outlet channel. The bipolar plate frame and the galvanic pile of the flow battery have simple structures and completely solve the problem of cross leakage caused by loose sealing between anolyte and catholyte.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of electric energy conversion and storage, in particular to a technical method for manufacturing a liquid flow battery. Background technique [0002] Using renewable energy such as wind energy and solar energy to generate electricity is one of the important ways for human beings to obtain energy from nature in the future. Due to the randomness and discontinuity of the wind and solar power generation process, it is difficult to maintain a stable power output. It needs to cooperate with a certain scale of power storage devices to form a complete power supply system to ensure continuous and stable power supply. Therefore, the development of energy storage systems with high power conversion efficiency, large storage capacity, and good economic performance has become the key to the development of renewable and clean energy. Among various forms of energy storage devices, such as water storage energy storage power...
