A Numerical Simulation of Vanadium Redox Flow Batteries
The recent penetration of renewable sources in the energy system caused a transformation of the needs of the distribution system and amplified the need of energy storage systems to properly balance the electricity grid. Among electrochemical energy storage devices, all vanadium flow batteries are those of the most promising technologies due to their high efficiency, long lifetime, reliability a...
متن کاملInvestigation of Hydroxylated Carbon Felt Electrode in Vanadium Redox Flow Battery by Using Optimized Supporting Electrolyte
Traditional vanadium batteries use pure sulfuric acid as electrolyte, but H2SO4 does not absorb enough vanadium ions to make the electrolyte an efficient energy source. This study investigates the effect of hydroxylation process on electrochemical and operational properties of carbon felt electrode in VOSO4 solution with an optimized supporting electrolyte (a mixture of six parts HCl and 2.5 pa...
متن کاملRedox Flow Batteries, Hydrogen and Distributed Storage.
Social, economic, and political pressures are causing a shift in the global energy mix, with a preference toward renewable energy sources. In order to realize widespread implementation of these resources, large-scale storage of renewable energy is needed. Among the proposed energy storage technologies, redox flow batteries offer many unique advantages. The primary limitation of these systems, h...
متن کاملThermally reduced graphite oxide as positive electrode in vanadium redox flow batteries
Two graphene-like materials, obtained by thermal exfoliation and reduction of a graphite oxide at 700 and 1000oC, were studied as active electrodes in the positive half-cell of a Vanadium Redox Flow Battery (VRFB). In particular, that obtained at 1000oC exhibited an outstanding electrochemical performance in terms of peak current densities (30.54 and 30.05 mAcm for the anodic and cathodic peaks...
متن کاملPore-scale analysis of effects of electrode morphology and electrolyte flow conditions on performance of vanadium redox flow batteries
A 3D pore-scale transport resolved model is used to study the performance characteristics of a vanadium redox flow battery (VRFB) with various electrode morphologies under different operating conditions. Three electrode structures are reconstructed from X-ray computed tomography (XCT) images of porous carbon felt electrode materials. The local vanadium concentration, overpotential, current dens...
