Flow Batteries: Modeling and Simulation of Flow Batteries (Adv. Energy Mater. 31/2020)

In article number 2000758, Liang An, T.S. Zhao and co-workers explore the fundamental understanding, physicochemical processes, working principles and operation limitations of flow batteries, even beyond the common all-vanadium redox flow batteries, through the various modeling frameworks and their simulation implications, paying particular attention to their length-scales. Perspectives for future directions on model development for flow batteries, particularly for the ones with limited model-based studies, are also highlighted.
