What is a good battery discharge rate?
In other words, the battery’s average discharge rate equates to approximately a C/5 to C/10 rate, based on an average speed of 50 miles per hour. However, for LMBs, fast discharge rates (around 1C to 3C) are beneficial but unrealistic for EV applications, where discharging time typically ranges from 20 min to 1 h.
What is a flow battery?
Flow batteries allow for independent scaleup of power and capacity specifications since the chemical species are stored outside the cell. The power each cell generates depends on the current density and voltage. Flow batteries have typically been operated at about 50 mA/cm 2, approximately the same as batteries without convection.
What determines the energy storage capacity of a flow battery?
Volume of electrolyte in external tanks determines energy storage capacity Flow batteries can be tailored for an particular application Very fast response times- < 1 msec Time to switch between full-power charge and full-power discharge Typically limited by controls and power electronics Potentially very long discharge times
What stoichiometric number should a battery flow rate be?
The maximum efficiencies are achieved at a stoichiometric number between 6 and 9. Increasing the flow rate improves the charge and discharge capacities of the battery, but this improvement tends to be smaller beyond a stoichiometric number of 9.
Can a flow battery be discharged without damaging the cell structure?
