Section 4.3  Determination of the electrochemical active electrode area 4.3 Determination of the electrochemical active electrode area 4.3.1 Model adaption According to the critical assessment of the concentration overpotential model in Section 2.10.3 on page 45, it is not surprising that the model deviates substantially from reality. To improve the model, individual mass transfer coefficients are now considered for negative and positive half-cell. Further, as the deviations can also be explained by the lack of clarity regarding the area with which the current density has to be computed in the concentration overpotential model, a method for deriving the correct area from the experimental results is presented. For the negative and positive half-cell, the mass transfer coefficient as shown in the Eqs. (2-72) and (2-73) is deployed. In Eq. (4-6), the electrode area, AE, is used for calculating the current density iDL from the cell current IC. The scaling factor K is introduced to adapt the electrode area to the actual electrochemical active electrode surface. A scaling coefficient of larger than one implies a larger electrochemical active electrode surface than the electrode area itself and vice versa. Of course, the former is expected to be observed. For each manufacturer, the scaling factor is determined using a parameter sweep. iDL 􏰵 |IC| KAE Wherein: K Scaling factor for model adaption (-) 4.3.2 Model preparation (4-6) The hydraulic subsystem and the computation of the vanadium ion concentrations is excluded in this part of the work. Either time dependent concentrations of the vanadium ions are supplied directly by the manufacturer, or they are computed using the supplied time dependent tank SoC and the total vanadium concentration. In the latter case, an ideally balanced electrolyte is assumed, as shown in the Eqs. (4-7) and (4-8). (4-7) (4-8) As the model does not have to compute tank SoC and vanadium concentrations, vanadium crossover and shunt currents are excluded. This is valid because the impact of these mechanisms on cell voltage is negligible for a well-designed single stack as used by all three manufacturers.
