Microprocessor-Based Control System for Flowing-Electrolyte Zinc-Bromine Battery Systems

摘要

The zinc-bromine battery system under development at Exxon is based on a bipolar, circulating electrolyte design concept. Such circulating electrolyte systems require a controller to operate and monitor system auxiliaries such as valves and pumps. A 1.2 kWh zinc-bromine battery system controller has been constructed using a single board computer. The design and operation of this controller will be discussed. (ERA citation 08:051368)
