Definitions
- the subject invention relates to a frame of a cell of a redox flow battery in which a distribution channel for supplying or discharging liquid is provided to the cell in an end face and in the frame further provided an opening into which the distribution channel opens and wherein the Distribution channel extends over the entire side length of the opening and in the distribution channel to the opening a plurality of juxtaposed webs are arranged.
- FIGS. 4 and 5 A known embodiment of a redox flow battery 50 or a stack 32 of a redox flow battery 50 is shown in FIGS. 4 and 5.
- the cells 30 of a stack 32 that is intended to consist of two adjacent half-cells 30a, 30b, each half-cell 30a, 30b being formed by a respective frame 1 having an opening 8 in which one electrode 20 is arranged and wherein the half-cell 30a, 30b are separated at least in the region of the opening 8 by a semi-permeable membrane 24.
- the first half-cell 30a of a cell 30 is flowed through by a first electrolyte liquid 15 and the second half-cell 30b of this cell by a second electrolyte liquid, wherein electrical current is generated by electro-chemical processes, tapped via electrical connections 48 on the end plates 46 of the stack 32 can be.
- redox flow batteries 50 such as a vanadium redox flow battery or a vanadium / polyhalide battery
- the two electrolyte liquids are chemically similar or substantially different in oxidation state (eg, V 2+ and V 3+) , V0 2 + and V0 2+ ). This process can also be reversed, with which the electrolyte liquid (or the battery) is charged.
- Several such cells 30 are combined in a redox flow battery 50 into a stack 32 by arranging the individual cells 30 side by side to achieve a higher power or voltage.
- the individual cells 30 are separated from one another by bipolar plates 22.
- the two electrolyte liquids with different state of charge are supplied via connections 47 in the end plates 46 and discharged and performed through holes 2, 3 in the frame 1 through the cells 30.
- the cells 30 are arranged between the two end plates 46 and the abutting pressure plates 45 and can be pressed together by passing bolts 30 40, which are braced by means of nuts 42, washers 43 and springs 41.
- a redox flow battery 50 also several stacks 32 can be summarized. Such arrangements are well known in various designs.
- Redox flow battery known, in which the electrolyte liquid is supplied via distributed along one side of the opening distribution channels and discharged and distributed therein.
- the electrode can fill the entire opening.
- the webs prevent the electrode from slipping into or being deformed into the distribution channel, which would cause uneven distribution of the electrolyte liquid, and that material washed out of the electrode, such as e.g. Fibers, enter the electrolyte fluid circuit.
- This object is achieved in that the ratio of fixed by the webs free flow area between distribution channel and opening to the projection surface of the opening in the flow direction between 0.1 and 0.95 preferably between 0.15 and 0.7 and most preferably between 0 , 2 and 0.5, is defined.
- the webs in the distribution channel ensure that no problems arise due to too narrow inflow or outflow channels. If a gap is laid between two webs, this changes the overall flow conditions only insignificantly.
- the uniform distribution of the electrolyte liquid in the cell or in the electrode is ensured by the distribution channel, which extends along the entire side length of the opening.
- a channel is provided with one end in the distribution channel and connected to the other end with an electrolyte fluid supply, and the ratio between the length of the channel and its cross section between 2 and 200, preferably between 10 and 100 and most particularly advantageous between 15 and 50, so that the channel is long in relation to the cross section, then shunt currents and thus also the self-discharge can be reduced.
- FIG. 1 is a schematic representation of a frame according to the invention in a basic view
- FIGS. 4 and 5 show a view of a stack of a redox flow battery or a
- the frame 1 is made of an elastomer, such as a polyolefinic thermoplastic elastomer (TPE or TPO), such as Santoprene, or a thermoplastic vulcanate (TPV), in particular in an injection molding process.
- the frame material has, for example, a hardness in the range of 40-95 Shore A, preferably 60-75 Shore A, on.
- an opening 8 is provided in its center, in which an electrode 20, for example a mat of carbon fibers, can be arranged (see FIG. 5). Around the opening 8 around a recess 7 may be provided, in which a bipolar plate 22 can be arranged (see Fig. 5).
- Such a frame 1 with electrode 20 forms a half cell 30a, 30b of a cell 30 of a stack 32 of a redox flow battery 50, as described above.
- the frame 1 further has through holes 2a, 3a, through which electrolyte liquid supply or electrolyte liquid discharge of the cells 30 electrolyte fluid is pumped through the stack 32.
- the bore 2a serves, for example, as a supply and the bore 3a as a discharge for a first electrolyte liquid of a half-cell.
- a second electrolyte liquid is passed through the bores 2b, 3b passing through the frame 1.
- channels 4, 5 are arranged, wherein a channel 4 is connected with one end to the electrolyte liquid supply to the feed hole 2a and forms a feed channel.
- the second channel 5 is arranged diametrically opposite and connected to the drainage hole 3a for the removal of electrolyte liquid and forms a discharge channel.
- the channels 4, 5 can also be arranged in the part of the end face S provided as the sealing surface.
- the following description of the channel 4 for the supply applies equally to the channel 5 for the discharge of the electrolyte liquid. However, it is of course also possible to design the supply and discharge channel differently.
- the channel 4 is open to the end face S and advantageously extends in a plane parallel to the end face S and opens into a distribution channel 9 which is arranged along one side of the opening 8 and the opening 8 by a plurality of juxtaposed webs 10 limited is.
- the webs 10 preferably extend from the bottom of the distribution channel 9 to the upper edge of the recess 7 or to the end face S, but may also extend over only a part of this height.
- the webs 10 are intended to substantially prevent the electrode from slipping or being deformed into the distribution channel 9, which would cause uneven distribution of the electrolyte liquid, and that material washed out of the electrode, such as e.g. Fibers, get into the electrolyte fluid circuit or lay the channel 4.
- the electrolyte liquid is thus supplied via the supply bore 2a, passes from there via the channel 4 into the distribution channel 9, is uniformly distributed there and continues to flow in the opening 8 arranged electrode 20.
- the electrolyte liquid flows through the electrode 20, is at the opposite Side over a further, preferably opposite distribution channel 9 collected and is discharged via the discharge channel 5 and the discharge hole 3a again.
- the ratio of free flow area F, between the webs 10 for the inflow to (or outflow from the) cell to the projection surface F E of the electrode in the flow direction see between 0.1 and 0.95, preferably between 0.15 and 0.7 and very particularly advantageously between see 0.2 and 0.5, as shown in Fig. 2.
- the free flow area F is the sum of the areas FM, F i2 ,... F in between the webs 10 in the distribution channel 9, as shown in FIG.
- the height H is not equal to the height of the frame 1 but smaller by the depth of the recess 7.
- the projection surface F E corresponds to the opening 8 in the flow direction of the projection surface of the electrode 20 in the flow direction, since the electrodes 20 are pressed into the half-cells 30a, 30b.
- the flow conditions at the inflow and outflow sides are preferably made equal.
- the channel 4 is designed for outflow or the channel 5 for outflow in comparison to the cross section F K with a long length K, as seen in FIG Figs. 1 and 3.
- the channel 4 for inflow and / or the channel 5 for outflow is preferably dimensioned such that the ratio between the length K of the channel 4, 5 and its cross section F K (or average cross section) is between 2 and 200, particularly advantageously between 10 and 100 and most preferably between 15 and 50, lies.
