April 11, 2022, 1:48 a.m. Updated 35 {"title": ["", "Investigating the Application of Flow-Batteries in Transport Applications"], "description": ["", "\nLithium-ion cells are the current mainstream R&D candidate for energy storage in electric vehicles/hybrid electric vehicles (EVs/HEVs). Vanadium flow batteries have lower energy density per kilogram than these mainstream lithium-ion cells but the technology has not received the same intensive research and development over the past 20 years.\nFlow-batteries are receiving a great deal of interest for transport applications in recent years due to having extremely long lifespans (up to 25+ years). Furthermore, the ability to simply refuel the cell in a similar manner to gasoline/diesel is very attractive, due to the energy being stored in liquid form. Range anxiety is a major issue with traditional battery electric vehicles, and if using flow batteries could become a realisation then there is potential to completely resolve this problem.\nVery little work has been done in terms of investigating the feasibility of applying flow-batteries various types of transport. Identifying how much a flow-battery needs to improve by is extremely useful information for flow-battery chemists, for example.\nThis project focuses on investigation using vehicle modelling of new EV/HEV configurations which incorporate a flow-battery, for a range of transport applications. During the initial stages an assessment of the safety limitations of implementation into a vehicle will be conducted. The project may include the testing of flow batteries to generate input data, as well as identifying if certain conditions are viable for a flow-battery. One application may require a radically different design to another. The outcome should be to identify new transport applications for flow-batteries, which may include various types of hybridisation. \nThe project is sponsored by HORIBA MIRA, a world class vehicle engineering company vehicle with extensive proving grounds. The student will conduct a total of 6 months of work experience at the sponsor.\nThe project objectives are:\n- Assess safety limits/implications of implementing flow-batteries into transport\n- Undertake flow-battery testing to gather data for models and validate intended applications\n- To determine and rank key factors influencing performance\n- Develop vehicle models to assess the viability of various configurations\n- Quantify how much a flow-battery may need to improve by to meet the requirements of certain applications\n- Undertake a full assessment of the future potential of flow batteries in EVs/HEVs\n\n"], "extra_text": ["", "\n\n\n\n"], "status": ["", "Active"]}
