Cell voltage model for Li-Bi liquid metal batteries

Norbert Weber, Carolina Duczek, Gerrit M. Horstmann +5

Lithium-bismuth bimetallic cells are amongst the best explored liquid metal batteries. A simple and fast quasi-one-dimensional cell voltage model for such devices is presented. The…

Conductivity influence on interfacial waves in liquid metal batteries and related two-layer systems

Tom Weier, Ilmars Grants, Gerrit Maik Horstmann +5

Fluid flows in liquid metal batteries can be generated by a number of effects. We start with a short overview of different driving mechanisms and then address questions specific to…

Modeling discontinuous potential distributions using the finite volume method, and application to liquid metal batteries

Norbert Weber, Steffen Landgraf, Kashif Mushtaq +5

The electrical potential in a battery jumps at each electrode-electrolyte interface. We present a model for computing three-dimensional current and potential distributions, which a…
