摘要
We outline the analysis of performance of redox flow batteries (RFBs) using polarization curves. This method allows the researcher immediate access to sources of performance losses in flow batteries operating at steady state. We provide guidance on 'best practices' for use of this tool, illustrated using examples from single cells operating as vanadium redox batteries.
