This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240047710 titled 'MODULAR FLOW FRAME FOR AN ELECTROCHEMICAL CELL, FLOW FRAME ELECTRODE UNIT, CELL, CELL STACK, AND METHOD FOR PRODUCING A FLOW FRAME

==Simplified Explanation==

The invention is a modular flow frame for an electrochemical cell, specifically for a redox flow battery stack. It consists of a main frame body with a U-shaped cross-sectional profile, creating a profiled receiving space that is open towards the frame opening. An insert is placed in the profiled receiving space of the main frame body, which contains channel structures for distributing fluids in the frame opening.

* The main frame body has a U-shaped cross-sectional profile, creating a profiled receiving space.
* An insert is placed in the profiled receiving space, containing channel structures for fluid distribution.
* The flow frame is modular, allowing for easy assembly and disassembly.
* The flow frame is designed for use in a redox flow battery stack.
* The channel structures in the insert facilitate the distribution of fluids within the frame opening.

Potential applications of this technology:

* Redox flow batteries: The modular flow frame can be used in redox flow battery systems, improving their efficiency and performance.
* Energy storage: The flow frame can be utilized in energy storage systems, allowing for the efficient storage and release of electrical energy.
* Renewable energy integration: The flow frame can be integrated into renewable energy systems, such as solar or wind farms, to store excess energy for later use.

Problems solved by this technology:

* Complex assembly: The modular flow frame simplifies the assembly process of electrochemical cells, reducing the time and effort required.
* Fluid distribution: The channel structures in the insert ensure efficient distribution of fluids within the frame opening, improving the overall performance of the cell.
* Maintenance and repair: The modular design of the flow frame allows for easy disassembly and replacement of components, simplifying maintenance and repair tasks.
