Improving a Redox Flow Battery Working under Realistic Conditions by Using of Graphene based Nanofluids

This work reports, for the first time, the behavior of a Redox Flow Battery using nanoparticles based on graphene in the vanadium based electrolytes to act as nanofluids and working under a solar profile radiation (realistic conditions) for renewable energy storage. It has been demonstrated that the...

Descripción
Sumario:This work reports, for the first time, the behavior of a Redox Flow Battery using nanoparticles based on graphene in the vanadium based electrolytes to act as nanofluids and working under a solar profile radiation (realistic conditions) for renewable energy storage. It has been demonstrated that the use of graphene based nanofluids improves the performance of this energy storage system and enhances the durability of the redox flow battery.
