Abstract

The invention relates to a composite snakelike flow channel structure, and an all-vanadium redox flow battery containing same. The composite snakelike flow channel structure comprises a main flow channel etched on a bipolar plate, the head section of the main flow channel is split into N snakelike flow channels, the tail section of the main flow channel is converged by the N snakelike flow channels, N is a natural number greater than 2, and the snakelike flow channels are equal in width and are uniformly distributed; and a reserved compression electrode space is arranged at the bottom of each snake-shaped flow channel. According to the invention, the space for compressing the reserved electrode is designed, and the electrolyte is guided to flow into the space for compressing the electrode through the composite snakelike flow channel and then flow into the porous electrode, so that the electrolyte is distributed more uniformly, the overpotential is reduced, and the performance of the battery is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of all-vanadium redox flow batteries, in particular to a composite serpentine flow channel structure and an all-vanadium redox flow battery containing the same. Background technique [0002] With the rapid economic development, the sharp increase in energy demand has become the main problem facing human beings. Traditional energy sources, such as coal mines, are exhausted due to excessive consumption, which cannot be exploited indefinitely, and will also have irreversible impacts on the environment. Green energy (hydropower, wind power and solar power, etc.) can effectively alleviate the above difficulties. At the same time, how to store green energy on a large scale has become a hot research topic. Among them, all-vanadium redox flow batteries have attracted extensive attention due to their long cycle life, reliable and safe operation, flexible design, and high energy efficiency. [0003] A typical all-va...
