G. Codina et al., DEVELOPMENT OF A 0.1 KW POWER ACCUMULATION PILOT-PLANT BASED ON AN FECR REDOX FLOW BATTERY .1. CONSIDERATIONS ON FLOW-DISTRIBUTION DESIGN/, Journal of power sources, 48(3), 1994, pp. 293-302
The design of a flow-distribution system for a 0.1 kW Fe/Cr redox flow
battery has been based on the application of shunt current calculatio
n model to a 20-cell bipolar system. A model to simulate the intra-sta
ck flow distribution has also been proposed. Both shunt-current and fl
ow-distribution analysis have yielded a prototype with a 93% current e
fficiency with an homogeneous intrastack flow distribution.
