In this paper we deal with strategic considerations in designing the stack of a vanadium redox flow battery. The design of the stacks is complicated by the presence of a number of parameters that can influence the performance. For a given stack power, the cell size and the number of cells are inversely related. As the cell size increases, concerns arise over …
In this sense, the design of the internal flow of a stack, that is, through the unit cells, may involve feeding the cells by electrolytes in parallel or in series, but the parallel method is more recommended, in view of the range of same volumetric flow in each unit cell, unlike the series flow that promotes disparities in the supply of each individual cell and promotes a …
