Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of single-flow batteries, in particular to the field of zinc-bromine single-flow batteries. Background technique [0002] Zinc-bromine redox flow battery (ZBB) is a low-cost, high-efficiency, environment-friendly flow energy storage battery with high energy density and current efficiency, simple and easy-to-operate device, and long service life. , low cost and other advantages, 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 disconnected betwe...
