Description

A kind of flow battery bipolar plates containing speed change runner
Technical field
The present invention relates to flow battery field, particularly a kind of flow battery bipolar plates containing speed change runner.
Background technology
Flow battery, be the vanadium ion solution using different valence state as both positive and negative polarity electrolyte, driven by external pump Dynamic electrolyte is circulated between fluid reservoir and pile, and electrolyte occurs redox reaction reality in pile The battery of existing charge and discharge process.Flow battery is made up of pipe-line systems such as pile, electrolyte and pumps, pile bag Include ionic conduction barrier film, liquid flow frame, electrode, bipolar plates and collector plate etc..Pile cell is passed with ion Lead centered on barrier film, two ends are followed successively by:Electrode and liquid flow frame, bipolar plate structure.Ionic conduction barrier film and liquid Between stream frame, there is potted component between liquid flow frame and bipolar plates.10 grades of cells of several levels or number are clamped in Between two stainless steel end plates, a pile is constituted through filter press pressuring action.Electrolyte is in fluid reservoir and electricity Circulated between heap, wherein must be by liquid flow frame, liquid flow frame plays distribution electrolyte in pile and exists The type of flow in pile, prevent the effect that electrolyte leaks outside;Potted component mainly electrolyte is played sealing, Prevent leakage from acting on;Bipolar plates mainly play each cell in separation pile and collect, convey electric current Effect.Because liquid flow frame, potted component and bipolar plates play indispensable effect to pile, its structure and Material will directly affect the stability and battery performance of flow battery.
At present, even depth electrode putting groove is provided with general liquid flow frame, electrolyte is along liquid in-out mouthful direction Flowing velocity is basically identical, but with the carrying out of reaction, is gradually reduced along liquid in-out mouthful orienting response thing concentration, Generally cause gradually to increase along liquid in-out mouthful direction concentration polarization, especially in discharge and recharge latter stage or high current Influence notable under density, cause battery overall performance to decline.Meanwhile, general liquid flow frame and bipolar plates at present It is two independent structures, potted component must be added between the two during composition pile.Liquid flow frame is generally used PVC material, bipolar plates use non-porous graphite material, metal or alloy material and various composites, sealing Structure typically has face to seal or linear sealing two ways.Liquid flow frame, potted component, bipolar plates, liquid flow frame, Potted component, bipolar plates ... assembly process it is cumbersome, if assembling is unreasonable, easily cause electrolyte to leak outside, Influence the stable operation of battery;And, potted component cost is also higher;Additionally, liquid flow frame should typically have The effect for preventing electrolyte from leaking outside, therefore during processing, the thickness of liquid flow frame is than the flow channel depth on liquid flow frame Big 1mm or so, corresponding thickness of electrode is larger, causes larger ohmic internal resistance, and then influence battery performance.
The content of the invention
The purpose of the present invention is, for the problem that prior art is present, to overcome defect of the prior art, A kind of flow battery bipolar plates containing speed change runner are proposed and study, it is by liquid stream of the prior art Frame and bipolar plate structure carry out scientific and reasonable improvement and integration, it is possible to achieve electrolyte is along liquid in-out mouth side Gradually increase to speed, influence of the concentration polarization caused with velocity gradient equilibrium concentration gradient to battery performance, Potted component quantity is reduced simultaneously, reduces the purpose of thickness of electrode, so as to simplify pile assembly technology, reduce Electrolyte leakage in pile, reduces battery ohmic internal resistance, improves the stability and battery performance of battery operation.
