They have shown great application prospects in the fields of solar energy, wind energy storage, grid peak regulation, and power supply to remote areas.
[0003] Due to its principle and design, the active area of the flow battery stack is usually large. This feature makes the mass transfer of the electrolyte in the stack more difficult, and the resulting concentration polarization inhibits the improvement of the stack performance. At the same time, the larger active area requires a larger charge and discharge current during the operation of the flow battery, but its inherently low voltage requires the matching PCS (Power Conversion System, energy storage converter) to be customized, increasing the cost of the flow battery energy storage system.
[0004] At present, the mass transfer problem inside the battery stack is mainly solved by adding flow channels on the bipolar plates and increasing the flow rate, and multiple battery stacks are connected in series to meet the voltage requirements of the PCS DC side. However, this method still has some problems, such as the addition of bipolar plate flow channels increases the contact resistance between the bipolar plates and the electrodes, or multiple battery stacks connected in series increase the system leakage loss, increasing the risk of system operation.
