3 Terms and definitions
For the purpose of this standard, the following terms and definitions apply.
3.1
vanadium flow battery, VFB
energy storage device that realizes the mutual conversion of electric energy and chemical energy through the electrochemical reaction of vanadium ions with different valences in positive and negative electrolyte, also known as vanadium flow battery system
Note: The vanadium flow battery is mainly composed of power unit (electric pile or module), energy storage unit (electrolyte and storage tank), electrolyte delivery unit (pipeline, valve, pump, heat exchanger, etc.) and battery management system, etc.
3.2
electrolyte
solution containing vanadium ions in different valence states with ionic conductivity
3.3
electrolyte (3.5 valence)
electrolyte with a valence state of 3.5, of which, the molar concentration ratio of trivalent vanadium ions to tetravalent vanadium ions is 1: 1
3.4
positive electrolyte
electrolyte when the battery works, of which the composition is different from that of electrolyte (3.5 valence) due to the change of valence state of vanadium ions. Positive electrolyte is the solution in the battery anode tank, and only contains tetravalent and pentavalent vanadium ions
