Abstract

The present invention provides a current collecting plate of a liquid flow battery and a liquid flow battery, wherein at least one side of the current collecting plate (2) of the liquid flow battery is provided with a flow field, and the flow field includes flow channel grooves distributed at intervals ( 21) and flow channel ridges (22), the total area of ​​the cross section of each flow channel groove (21) in the flow field along the flow direction of the electrolyte decreases gradually. The present invention effectively solves the problem of energy waste and uneven flow of electrolyte caused by the lack of guiding effect of the collector plate in the prior art, and the concentration of reacting substances in the electrolyte gradually decreases with the progress of the reaction, resulting in uneven reaction rates and heat generated by the reactions at various parts of the electrodes. Uniform problems, thereby improving the charge and discharge performance and service life of the battery.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of batteries, in particular to a current collector plate of a flow battery and a flow battery. Background technique [0002] There are many types of flow batteries. Taking the widely used all-vanadium flow battery as an example, the all-vanadium redox flow battery is a kind of redox flow battery with long service life, high energy conversion efficiency and good safety. , environmental friendliness and other advantages, it can be used in large-scale energy storage systems for wind power generation and photovoltaic power generation, and is one of the main choices for power grid peak-shaving and valley-filling and load balancing. [0003] The all-vanadium redox flow battery uses vanadium ions V2+ / V3+ and V4+ / V5+ in different valence states as the positive and negative redox pairs of the battery, and stores the positive and negative electrolytes in two liquid storage tanks, respectively. The acid-resistant liquid pump dr...
