Description:
A preprototype 1.0 kW redox system (2 kW peak) with 11 kWh storage capacity was built and integrated with the NASA/DOE photovoltaic test facility at NASA Lewis. This full function redox system includes four substacks of 39 cells each (1/3 cu ft active area) which are connected hydraulically in parallel and electrically in series. An open circuit voltage cell and a set of rebalance cells are used to continuously monitor the system state of charge and automatically maintain the anode and cathode reactants electrochemically in balance. Recent membrane and electrode advances are summarized and the results of multicell stack tests of 1 cu ft are described.
