A flow battery, or redox flow battery (after reduction–oxidation), is a type of electrochemical cell where chemical energy is provided by two chemical components dissolved in liquids that are pumped through the system on separate sides of a membrane. Ion transfer inside the cell (accompanied by current flow through an external circuit) occurs across the membrane while the liquids circulate in their respective spaces.
A flow battery is an electrochemical device that converts the chemical energy of the electro-active materials directly to electrical energy, similar to a conventional battery and fuel cell.
Topology optimization results reveal dependencies on initial value, porosity constraint, and flow rate. The distribution with lower porosity is preferred downstream of the
Flow batteries can release energy continuously at a high rate of discharge for up to 10 h. Three different electrolytes form the basis of existing designs of flow batteries currently in
Defined standards for measuring both the performance of flow battery systems and facilitating the interoperability of key flow battery components were identified as a key need by
How can MIT help develop flow batteries? A modeling framework developed at MIT can help speed the development of flow batteries for large-scale, long-duration electricity storage on the
