Description
Technical Field
[0001] The embodiments of the present invention relate to the technical field of liquid flow battery energy storage systems, and in particular to a liquid flow battery multi-stack cascade testing system. Background Art
[0002] Liquid flow battery is a new type of electrochemical energy storage method. Liquid flow battery realizes charging and discharging by utilizing the redox reaction between the active substances contained in the positive electrolyte and the negative electrolyte. For large-scale energy storage power stations, the output power of a single battery stack is far from meeting the system charging and discharging requirements. Therefore, a series-parallel combination of multiple battery stacks is used to increase the voltage and current of the liquid flow battery energy storage system, so as to increase the charging and discharging power of the energy storage unit or module and meet the requirements of the large-scale energy storage power station stack energy storage unit or module.
[0003] As the power of liquid flow battery energy storage systems increases, the number of battery stacks also increases accordingly. There are multiple ways to supply positive and negative electrolytes to multiple battery stacks in series and parallel combinations. Different supply methods may lead to differences in the flow mode, mixing degree, and reaction rate of the electrolyte in the battery stack, which in turn affects the charge and discharge efficiency of the liquid flow battery energy storage system. Therefore, it is crucial to implement multiple supply methods in the liquid flow battery multi-stack cascade test system to effectively monitor the impact of different supply methods on the charge and discharge efficiency of the liquid flow battery energy storage system. Existing technologies usually only test the charge and discharge efficiency of a single battery stack, and cannot fully evaluate the impact of different supply methods on the charge and discharge efficiency of the entire system.

[0074] Continue to refer Figure 1The negative electrode auxiliary liquid return pipeline 56 is respectively connected to the main liquid return port of the negative electrode storage tank 42 and each negative electrode liquid return branch pipeline, and the negative electrode liquid return branch pipeline includes a first negative electrode liquid return branch pipeline 561 and a second negative electrode liquid return branch pipeline 562. The first negative electrode liquid return branch pipeline 561 corresponds to the first battery stack setting unit 11, so that the negative electrode products after the oxidation-reduction reaction of each battery stack in the first battery stack setting unit 11 can be transported back to the negative electrode storage tank 42 in sequence through the first negative electrode liquid return branch pipeline 561 and the negative electrode auxiliary liquid return pipeline 56.

Other battery stack setting groups have similar settings. The similarities can be referred to the above description and will not be repeated here.
[0075] It is understandable that the switching modes of each first control valve, each second control valve, each third control valve and each fourth control valve in the electrolyte circulation module can be independently set according to actual conditions, that is, the switching modes of each first control valve, each second control valve, each third control valve and each fourth control valve can have multiple combinations to achieve multiple liquid supply modes in the multi-stack cascade test system of the flow battery. For example, when the second control valve is controlled to be closed, and the first first control valve and the second first control valve are both controlled to be open, the fourth control valve can be controlled to be open, and the first third control valve and the second third control valve are both controlled to be closed. By analogy, each control valve in the electrolyte circulation module can also have a similar switching combination mode, which will not be repeated here.
[0076] It can also be understood that the relative position relationship between the control valve and the auxiliary liquid inlet in the liquid inlet branch pipeline between two adjacent battery stack setting groups in the same battery stack setting unit can be that the control valve can be located on the side of the liquid inlet close to the main liquid inlet pipeline; correspondingly, the relative position relationship between the control valve and the auxiliary liquid return port in the liquid return branch pipeline between two adjacent battery stack setting groups in the same battery stack setting unit can be that the control valve can be located on the side of the liquid return port close to the main liquid inlet pipeline. The specific setting method can be designed according to actual needs, and the embodiment of the present invention does not make specific limitations on this.
[0077] In this embodiment, a plurality of stack setting units are set in the stack setting module in the liquid flow battery multi-stack cascade test system, and a plurality of stack setting groups are set in each stack setting unit, and a plurality of stack setting mechanisms are set in each stack setting group. The stack setting mechanism is used to set the stack to realize the series and / or parallel connection of the plurality of stacks in the liquid flow battery multi-stack cascade test system, and a stack positive electrode liquid inlet, a stack negative electrode liquid inlet, a stack positive electrode liquid outlet and a stack negative electrode liquid outlet are set in the stack setting mechanism, so that the positive electrode electrolyte and the negative electrode electrolyte can flow between the stacks, so that the stack can perform redox reactions to realize the charging and discharging process; a positive electrode storage tank, a negative electrode storage tank, a positive electrode main liquid inlet pipeline, a positive electrode auxiliary liquid inlet pipeline, a plurality of positive electrode liquid inlet branch pipelines, and a positive electrode main liquid return pipe are set in the electrolyte circulation module in the liquid flow battery multi-stack cascade test system. The positive / negative electrolyte can be transmitted to the positive / negative electrode liquid inlet of each stack setting mechanism in each stack setting group through each positive / negative electrode pipeline outlet group and each positive / negative electrode pipeline outlet group in each positive electrode liquid inlet branch pipeline, so as to supply liquid to multiple stacks of the flow battery. Each battery stack in the cascade test system transports positive / negative electrode electrolytes; at the same time, the positive / negative electrode products after the oxidation-reduction reaction of each battery stack of each battery stack setting mechanism in each battery stack setting group are transported back to the positive electrode storage tank or the negative electrode storage tank through each positive / negative electrode pipeline return liquid port group and each positive / negative electrode pipeline return liquid port in each positive / negative electrode return liquid branch pipeline, thereby realizing the circulation of the positive / negative electrode electrolytes between the positive electrode storage tank or the negative electrode storage tank and each battery stack. In addition, by arranging at least one positive auxiliary liquid inlet and at least one first control valve in the positive liquid inlet branch pipeline, arranging a second control valve in the positive auxiliary liquid inlet pipeline between the auxiliary liquid outlet of the positive liquid storage tank and the positive auxiliary liquid inlet, arranging at least one negative auxiliary liquid inlet and at least one third control valve in the negative liquid inlet branch pipeline, and arranging a fourth control valve in the negative auxiliary liquid inlet pipeline between the auxiliary liquid outlet of the negative liquid storage tank and the negative auxiliary liquid inlet, different liquid supply modes of the positive main liquid inlet pipeline, the positive auxiliary liquid inlet pipeline, the negative main liquid inlet pipeline and the negative auxiliary liquid inlet pipeline can be realized by controlling the switching state of each control valve, thereby realizing a variety of liquid supply modes in the liquid flow battery multi-stack cascade test system, so as to be able to monitor the influence of different liquid supply modes on the charging and discharging efficiency of the liquid flow battery energy storage system.
[0078] Optionally, the liquid flow battery multi-stack cascade test system also includes at least one fifth control valve and at least one sixth control valve; the fifth control valve is arranged in the positive electrode auxiliary liquid inlet pipeline between two adjacent positive electrode auxiliary liquid inlets; the sixth control valve is arranged in the negative electrode auxiliary liquid inlet pipeline between two adjacent negative electrode auxiliary liquid inlets.
[0079] Specifically, the liquid flow battery multi-stack cascade test system further includes one or more fifth control valves and one or more sixth control valves to implement more liquid supply modes for the liquid flow battery multi-stack cascade test system.
[0080] For example, continue to refer to Figure 1 A fifth control valve 526 is provided in the positive auxiliary liquid inlet pipeline 52 between the first positive auxiliary liquid inlet port 521 and the second positive auxiliary liquid inlet port 523. When the fifth control valve 526 is controlled to be in a closed state, and the second control valve 525 is controlled to be in an open state, the first first control valve 522 is controlled to be in a closed state, and the second first control valve 524 is controlled to be in an open state, the positive electrolyte can be respectively transferred from the main liquid outlet of the positive liquid storage tank 41 through the positive main liquid inlet pipeline 51 to the first positive liquid inlet branch pipeline 511 and the second positive liquid inlet branch pipeline 512, and then transferred from the first positive liquid inlet branch pipeline 511 to the first positive liquid storage tank 41. The positive electrode liquid inlet of each battery stack setting mechanism in the battery stack setting group 21, and the positive electrode liquid inlet of each battery stack setting mechanism in the third battery stack setting group 23 and the positive electrode liquid inlet of each battery stack setting mechanism in the fourth battery stack setting group 24 are transmitted by the second positive electrode liquid inlet branch pipeline 512.

At the same time, the positive The cathode electrolyte can be transferred from the auxiliary liquid outlet of the positive electrode storage tank 41 through the positive electrode auxiliary liquid inlet pipeline 52 through the first positive electrode auxiliary liquid inlet 521 to the positive electrode liquid inlet of each battery stack setting mechanism in the second battery stack setting group 22, and transferred to the positive electrode liquid inlet of each battery stack setting mechanism in the fourth battery stack setting group 24 through the second positive electrode auxiliary liquid inlet 523, thereby realizing more liquid supply methods for supplying liquid to each battery stack in the liquid flow battery multi-stack cascade test system through the positive electrode main liquid inlet pipeline and the positive electrode auxiliary liquid inlet pipeline, thereby increasing the flexibility and adjustability of the liquid flow battery multi-stack cascade test system.
[0081] For example, continue to refer to Figure 1A sixth control valve 556 is provided in the negative electrode auxiliary liquid inlet pipeline 55 between the first negative electrode auxiliary liquid inlet port 551 and the second negative electrode auxiliary liquid inlet port 553. When the sixth control valve 556 is controlled to be in a closed state, and the fourth control valve 555 is controlled to be in an open state, the first and third control valves 552 are controlled to be in a closed state, and the second and third control valves 554 are controlled to be in an open state, the negative electrode electrolyte can be transmitted from the main liquid outlet of the negative electrode storage tank 42 through the negative electrode main liquid inlet pipeline 51 to the first positive electrode liquid inlet branch pipeline 541 and the second positive electrode liquid inlet branch pipeline 542, and then the first positive electrode liquid inlet branch pipeline is used to transfer the negative electrolyte to the first positive electrode liquid inlet branch pipeline 541. 541 is transmitted to the negative electrode liquid inlet of each battery stack setting mechanism in the second battery stack setting group 22, and is transmitted to the negative electrode liquid inlet of each battery stack setting mechanism in the third battery stack setting group 23 and the negative electrode liquid inlet of each battery stack setting mechanism in the fourth battery stack setting group 24 by the second negative electrode liquid inlet branch pipeline 542. At the same time, the negative electrode electrolyte can be transmitted from the auxiliary liquid outlet of the negative electrode storage tank 42 through the negative electrode auxiliary liquid inlet pipeline 55 through the first negative electrode auxiliary liquid inlet 551 to the negative electrode liquid inlet of each battery stack setting mechanism in the first battery stack setting group 21; at this time, if the sixth control valve 556 is controlled to be in the open state , and when the fourth control valve 555 is controlled to be in an open state, the first and third control valves 552 are controlled to be in a closed state, and the second and third control valves 554 are controlled to be in a closed state, the negative electrode electrolyte can be transferred from the main liquid outlet of the negative electrode storage tank 42 through the negative electrode main liquid inlet pipeline 54 to the first negative electrode liquid inlet branch pipeline 541 and the second negative electrode liquid inlet branch pipeline 542 respectively, and then transferred from the first negative electrode liquid inlet branch pipeline 541 to the negative electrode liquid inlet of each battery stack setting mechanism in the second battery stack setting group 22, and transferred from the second negative electrode liquid inlet branch pipeline 542 to the negative electrode liquid inlet of each battery stack setting mechanism in the fourth battery stack setting group 24, and the same When the negative electrode electrolyte is in the form of a liquid phase, the negative electrode electrolyte can be transferred from the auxiliary liquid outlet of the negative electrode storage tank 42 through the negative electrode auxiliary liquid inlet pipeline 55 through the first negative electrode auxiliary liquid inlet 551 to the negative electrode liquid inlet of each battery stack setting mechanism in the first battery stack setting group 21, and transferred to the negative electrode liquid inlet of each battery stack setting mechanism in the third battery stack setting group 23 through the second negative electrode auxiliary liquid inlet 553, thereby realizing more liquid supply methods for each battery stack in the liquid flow battery multi-stack cascade test system through the negative electrode main liquid inlet pipeline and the negative electrode auxiliary liquid inlet pipeline, thereby increasing the flexibility and adjustability of the liquid flow battery multi-stack cascade test system.
[0082] Optional, continue to refer to Figure 1The liquid flow battery multi-stack cascade test system also includes a first temperature management module 6; the first temperature management module 6 includes a heat exchange inlet 61 and a heat exchange outlet 62; the heat exchange inlet 61 is connected to the electrolyte heat exchange outlet 533 of the positive electrode main return liquid pipeline 53 through a heat exchange inlet pipeline; the heat exchange outlet 62 is connected to the electrolyte heat exchange inlet 534 of the positive electrode main return liquid pipeline 53 through a heat exchange outlet pipeline; the temperature management unit 6 is at least used to control the temperature of the electrolyte refluxed to the positive electrode storage tank 41 through the positive electrode main return liquid pipeline 53.
[0083] Among them, the first temperature management module 6 can be specifically understood as a module for controlling and managing the temperature of the electrolyte. Exemplarily, the first temperature management module 6 can include a heat exchanger and a heat and cold integrated machine. The first temperature management module 6 sends the electrolyte in the positive electrode main return liquid pipeline 53 through the electrolyte heat exchange outlet 533 to the heat exchanger and the heat and cold integrated machine for temperature adjustment through the heat exchange liquid inlet 61. The heat exchanger realizes heating and cooling of the electrolyte through the refrigerant to control the electrolyte temperature to remain within the efficient operating range of 30-35°C, avoid crystallization due to the electrolyte temperature being too low, and avoid the electrolyte temperature being too high to affect the redox reaction of the battery stack. After the first temperature management module 6 adjusts the temperature of the electrolyte, the electrolyte is re-delivered to the positive electrode main return liquid pipeline 53 through the heat exchange liquid outlet 62 through the electrolyte heat exchange inlet 534, so that the temperature-adjusted electrolyte flows back to the positive electrode storage tank 41. The first temperature management module realizes the control and stabilization of the electrolyte temperature, ensuring that the multi-stack cascade test system of the liquid flow battery operates under suitable temperature conditions, improving the stability and reliability of the multi-stack cascade test system of the liquid flow battery, and at the same time ensuring that the battery stack undergoes redox reactions at the optimal temperature, optimizing the performance and efficiency of the battery stack.
[0084] Optionally, the liquid flow battery multi-stack cascade test system also includes a seventh control valve 535, which is arranged in the positive electrode main return liquid pipeline 53 between the electrolyte heat exchange outlet 533 of the positive electrode main return liquid pipeline 53 and the electrolyte heat exchange inlet 534 of the positive electrode main return liquid pipeline 53.
[0085] Specifically, the seventh control valve 535 is disposed between the electrolyte heat exchange outlet 533 and the electrolyte heat exchange inlet 534 of the positive electrode main return liquid pipeline 53. When the electrolyte in the positive electrode main return liquid pipeline 53 needs to enter the first temperature management module 6 for temperature adjustment, the seventh control valve 535 is controlled to be closed, so that the electrolyte in the positive electrode main return liquid pipeline 53 enters the first temperature management module 6 through the electrolyte heat exchange outlet 533 for temperature adjustment, and the electrolyte after temperature adjustment flows back to the positive electrode main return liquid pipeline 53 through the electrolyte heat exchange inlet 534. The seventh control valve can accurately adjust the flow direction of the electrolyte in the positive electrode main return liquid pipeline, so that the liquid flow battery multi-stack cascade test system can flexibly adjust the temperature of the electrolyte in the positive electrode main return liquid pipeline according to demand, optimize the temperature management effect of the liquid flow battery multi-stack cascade test system, and improve the stability and reliability of the liquid flow battery multi-stack cascade test system.
[0086] Optionally, the liquid flow battery multi-stack cascade test system also includes an eighth control valve 611 and / or a ninth control valve 621; the eighth control valve 611 is arranged in the heat exchange liquid inlet pipeline; the ninth control valve 621 is arranged in the heat exchange liquid outlet pipeline.
[0087] Specifically, when the electrolyte in the positive electrode main liquid return pipeline 53 needs to enter the first temperature management module 6 for temperature adjustment, the seventh control valve 535 is controlled to be in a closed state, and the eighth control valve 611 and the ninth control valve 621 are controlled to be in an open state, so that the electrolyte in the positive electrode main liquid return pipeline 53 enters the first temperature management module 6 through the heat exchange liquid inlet pipeline for temperature adjustment, and the electrolyte after temperature adjustment flows back to the positive electrode main liquid return pipeline 53 through the heat exchange liquid outlet pipeline. When the electrolyte in the positive electrode main liquid return pipeline 53 does not need to enter the first temperature management module 6 for temperature adjustment, the seventh control valve 535 is controlled to be in an open state, and the eighth control valve 611 and the ninth control valve 621 are controlled to be in a closed state, and the electrolyte in the positive electrode main liquid return pipeline 53 will not enter the first temperature management module 6, but will directly flow back to the positive electrode storage tank 41. By controlling the switch states of the eighth control valve and the ninth control valve, and coordinating the switch states of the seventh control valve, the flow direction of the electrolyte in the positive electrode main return liquid pipeline can be accurately adjusted, so that the liquid flow battery multi-stack cascade test system can flexibly adjust the temperature of the electrolyte in the positive electrode main return liquid pipeline according to demand, optimize the temperature management effect of the liquid flow battery multi-stack cascade test system, and improve the stability and reliability of the liquid flow battery multi-stack cascade test system.

At the same time, it can judge the flow of the electrolyte entering each battery stack to ensure that the electrolyte flow received by each battery stack is balanced, avoid performance differences caused by uneven flow, and improve the stability and consistency of the liquid flow battery multi-stack cascade test system.
[0100] Accordingly, Figure 5 FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of another structure of a multi-stack cascade test system for flow batteries provided by an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 5 As shown, the liquid flow battery multi-stack cascade test system also includes an electrical signal acquisition unit 101 and a stack management module 102, wherein the electrical signal acquisition unit 101 is connected to the stacks provided at each stack setting mechanism, and is used to collect electrical signals of each stack, including parameters such as voltage and current. By collecting electrical signals from each stack, the liquid flow battery multi-stack cascade test system can monitor the working status of each stack in real time, including the voltage and current changes during the charging and discharging process of the stack, so as to achieve accurate management and optimization of the liquid flow battery multi-stack cascade test system.

It can be understood that the stack management module 102 can be connected to the stack, the electrical signal acquisition unit 101, and each sensor module 9 provided at each stack setting mechanism by electrical connection, or by communication connection, and the present invention does not limit this.
[0101] Optional, continue to refer to Figure 5 The liquid flow battery multi-stack cascade test system also includes a charge and discharge module 103, which is electrically connected to the battery stacks set at each battery stack setting mechanism, and is used to obtain the charge and discharge status of each battery stack, and determine the charge and discharge efficiency of each battery stack according to the charge and discharge status of each battery stack.
[0102] Specifically, the charge and discharge module 103 is electrically connected to the battery stacks provided at each battery stack setting mechanism, respectively, to obtain the charge and discharge state of each battery stack, and determines the charge and discharge efficiency of each battery stack according to the charge and discharge state of each pair of electrodes, that is, the ratio of energy input to output, so as to evaluate the performance of the liquid flow battery multi-stack cascade test system. It is understandable that the charge and discharge module 103 can monitor the charge and discharge efficiency of each battery stack under different liquid supply modes. By comparing the efficiency data under different liquid supply modes, the liquid flow battery multi-stack cascade test system can determine which liquid supply mode can achieve the best battery stack charge and discharge efficiency, thereby optimizing the operation mode of the liquid flow battery multi-stack cascade test system and improving the efficiency, stability and reliability of the liquid flow battery multi-stack cascade test system.
[0103] Optionally, the multi-stack cascade test system for liquid flow batteries also includes a filter 13, which is respectively arranged in the positive electrode main liquid inlet pipeline 51 between the main liquid outlet of the positive electrode storage tank 41 and each positive electrode liquid inlet branch pipeline, in the positive electrode auxiliary liquid inlet pipeline 52 between the auxiliary liquid outlet of the positive electrode storage tank 41 and each positive electrode auxiliary liquid inlet, in the negative electrode main liquid inlet pipeline 54 between the main liquid outlet of the negative electrode storage tank 42 and each negative electrode liquid inlet branch pipeline, and in the negative electrode auxiliary liquid inlet pipeline 55 between the auxiliary liquid outlet of the negative electrode storage tank 42 and each negative electrode auxiliary liquid inlet.

Therefore, a first exchange valve 01 is set in the top exchange pipeline between the top electrolyte exchange port of the positive electrode storage tank 41 and the top electrolyte exchange port of the negative electrode storage tank 42 to play a safety protection role when the electrolyte level in the storage tank is too high, to prevent the electrolyte from overflowing the storage tank and to maintain the liquid level in the storage tank stable.
