Problems solved by technology

However, since there is no circulating pump design on both sides of the positive and negative electrodes, the actual energy density of the battery is low, and it cannot be charged and discharged with a large current.

Abstract

A zinc bromine single flow cell is composed of a cell module, negative electrode electrolyte, a negative electrode liquid storage tank, a circulating pump and a circulating line. A static state packaging structure is adopted by a positive electrode side and assembly of a positive electrode bromine electrolyte circulating system is needless. Single flow arrangement is adopted by a system so that compared with a traditional zinc bromine flow cell with positive and negative double flow circulation, a set of circulating pump and circulating line is reduced. A sealing structure is adopted by the positive electrode side so that the problems of corrosion and leakage of bromine are solved, system energy consumption of the cell is reduced, cost is reduced and cell structure is simplified. Compared with a zinc bromine storage cell without a circulating system, due to the fact that a flow state electrolyte form is still adopted by the negative electrode side, zinc deposition structure is advanced, energy efficiency of the cell is improved and service life of the cell is prolonged.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a single-flow energy storage battery, in particular to a zinc-bromine single-flow battery. Background technique [0002] Zinc-bromine redox flow battery (ZBB) is a low-cost, high-efficiency, and environmentally friendly liquid flow energy storage battery, which has high energy density and current efficiency, simple and easy to operate, and easy to use. With the advantages of long life and low cost, it is mainly used in power grid peak regulation, renewable energy generation such as wind energy and solar energy, electric vehicles and other fields. [0003] The traditional zinc-bromine flow battery adopts a double-pump and double-pipe design. During the charging and discharging process, the circulating pump is used to drive the electrolyte to circulate in the battery. When the battery is not working, the electrolyte is extracted from the battery cavity and stored in the liquid storage tank, so that the electrolyte is disconnecte...
