Flow Battery System and Method Thereof

摘要

A redox flow battery system includes a first flow compartment, a second flow compartment, an ion exchange membrane positioned between the first flow compartment and the second flow compartment, a first pump configured to pump a first half-cell electrolyte from a first storage tank to the first flow compartment, a second pump configured to pump a second half-cell electrolyte from a second storage tank to the second flow compartment, a first weight sensor configured to provide a first weight signal associated with the weight of the first storage tank and the first half-cell electrolyte within the first storage tank, a memory in which command instructions are stored, and a processor configured to execute the command instructions to obtain the first weight signal, and to control the first pump, current and voltage on terminals of flow battery based upon the obtained first weight signal.
