Foreign countries have developed a flow battery that may be a substitute for internal combustion engines

　　According to foreign media reports, chemists from the University of Glasgow have recently made a potentially revolutionary breakthrough that may allow future gas stations to refill electric and hydrogen vehicles not only in the same place but through the same pump. Serve. The new battery system, which uses nanomolecules suspended in a liquid, not only allows cars to be charged in minutes but also generates electricity or hydrogen on demand.

　　Engineers have been looking for alternatives to the internal combustion engine for decades, but have encountered constant obstacles. For all their shortcomings, cars and diesel are ideal compact fuels with a very high energy-to-mass ratio. Plus, they're very easy to obtain, transport, and can fill a vehicle's gas tank in minutes.

　　Although hydrogen fuel cell vehicles have many of the same advantages as gasoline-powered vehicles, their current supporting infrastructure is very scarce, and they are not as common as electric vehicles on the market, and the latter charge very slowly. , charging usually takes several hours. Although the two types of vehicles will become increasingly popular in the medium term, they are incompatible with each other when it comes to energy supply, and now a new energy storage system from the University of Glasgow could change that.

　　A research team led by Leroy (Lee) Cronin, Professor of Chemistry at the University of Glasgow, came up with the idea of a flow battery. The battery allows two tanks of different liquids to flow through a membrane between the poles, which allows ions to circulate through the two liquids and generate electricity.

　　The beauty of a flow battery is that it can work like a traditional battery or fuel cell, and it can be recharged by removing the waste fluid and replacing it with new fluid. Take the University of Glasgow's hybrid electric-hydrogen battery, for example. The liquid used is a suspension of nanomolecules, each of which can act as a small battery. At sufficient concentrations, the team says the liquid could store large amounts of energy and then release it as electricity or hydrogen.

　　According to the researchers, this new type of battery can remove old fluid and input new fluid in a few seconds, which means that electric vehicles using this system can be charged as quickly as gasoline vehicles. The same pump can provide fuel for two different energy vehicles. In addition, the system can provide electricity and hydrogen fueling when great program flexibility is required.

　　Technology Zone The country's first fuel cell project using coal as raw material was developed in Shanxi. A flow battery or a substitute for the internal combustion engine was developed abroad. Elmos launched a 72V three-phase half-bridge driver based on a brushless DC motor. The working principle of the E523.50 boost converter DC converter, boost DC converter design
