To investigate these properties, a new cell design was proposed to facilitate synchrotron X\u2010ray imaging. Three different flow geometries were studied to understand the impact on the flow dynamics, and the formation of hydrogen bubbles. By electrolyte injection experiments, it was shown that the maximum saturation of carbon felt was achieved by a flat flow field after the first injection and by a serpentine flow field after continuous flow. Furthermore, the average saturation of the carbon felt was correlated to the cyclic voltammetry current response, and the hydrogen gas evolution was visualized in 3D by X\u2010ray tomography. The capabilities of this cell design and experiments were outlined, which are essential for the evaluation and optimization of cell components of VRFBs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>DOI: 10.1002\/cssc.202000541 Authors: L\u00e1szl\u00f3 Eifert, Nico Bevilacqua, Kerstin K\u00f6ble, Kieran F.
