Multiscale Modelling and Simulation of Flow Batteries

Multiscale Modelling and Simulation of Flow Batteries provides an in-depth understanding of the flow battery renewable energy storage devices most suitable for large-scale stationary energy storage and their performance optimization at microscopic, mesoscopic and macroscopic levels. The book includes a comprehensive description of multiscale modeling and simulation strategies in flow batteries, with a critical review of advances in this rapidly developing field. Designed in sections according to the required accuracy, available computational capacity, and interested battery metrics, this reference features a tutorial on modeling macroscopic battery performance with step-by-step settings and a sample programming flowchart.

With all aspects of flow battery modeling and multiscale modeling strategies and simulations, from the kinetics of active species to whole battery performance, this book is beneficial to researchers majoring in engineering and a modeling paradigm for those working on other electrochemical systems.
