A Flexible 7-in-1 Microsensor Embedded in a Hydrogen/Vanadium Redox Battery for Real-Time Microscopic Measurements

Abstract

The latest document indicates that the hydrogen/vanadium redox flow battery has better energy density and efficiency than the vanadium redox flow battery, as well as being low-cost and light-weight. In addition, the hydrogen, electrical conductivity, voltage, current, temperature, electrolyte flow, and runner pressure inside the hydrogen/vanadium redox flow battery can influence its performance and life. Therefore, this plan will try to step into the hydrogen/vanadium redox flow battery stack and improve the vanadium redox flow battery of this R&D team, whereof the electrolyte is likely to leak during assembling, and the strong acid corrosion environment is likely to age or fail the vanadium redox flow battery and microsensors. Micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS) are used, which are integrated with the flexible 7-in-1 microsensor, which is embedded in the hydrogen/vanadium redox flow battery for internal real-time microscopic sensing and diagnosis.
