Technical FAQs 4

Can a battery be charged and discharged simultaneously?

There is no simultaneous charging and discharging going on. Draw out the circuit and follow the currents. You can conceptualize the above example as 1 A charging the battery and 3 A discharging it, but the battery sees the sum. Again, draw a diagram and it should be more clear. Handwaving makes everything difficult to understand.

How long does a flow battery last?

Flow batteries can release energy continuously at a high rate of discharge for up to 10 h. Three different electrolytes form the basis of existing designs of flow batteries currently in demonstration or in large-scale project development.

How does a flow battery differ from a conventional battery?

In contrast with conventional batteries, flow batteries store energy in the electrolyte solutions. Therefore, the power and energy ratings are independent, the storage capacity being determined by the quantity of electrolyte used and the power rating determined by the active area of the cell stack.

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
