Mathematical Modeling of the Sodium/Iron Chloride Battery

“…To p account for the disappearance of the NaCl precipitate, the calculation 0. 6 ..---..,....--,----.----r--r----r--..,.....--,----.---- Effect of current density during charge.--According to previous papers [1][2][3][4][5], the charging current density should be relatively small. Increasing the discharge capacity requires a high degree of chlorination and as full a discharge as possible.…”

“…Na//3" -Al 2 0 3 /NaAlC1 4 /Metal chloride batteries are being developed for load-leveling and electric vehicle applications [1][2][3][4][5]. This battery 2 is similar to the sodium/sulfur cell, with the sulfur electrode being replaced by a metal/metal chloride electrode.…”

Advanced materials for sodium-beta alumina batteries: Status, challenges and perspectives

“…Considering that both anhydrous nickel chloride and metallic sodium are rather difficult to handle, the cell is typically assembled in the discharged state. A mixture of metallic nickel and sodium chloride powders is filled into the cathode chamber and sodium as well as nickel chloride are generated during the first charge [4,5].…”

Thermal activated (“thermal”) battery technology

“…A number of transition-metal halides have been examined for possible use as thermal-battery cathodes, such as NiCl 2 [50][51][52][53], FeCl 2 [54][55][56], and SbCl 3 [57] in conjunction with tetrachloroaluminate melts (e.g., NaAlCl 4 ). However, these studies involved the use of a liquid-Na anode and solid Na + conductors, such as ␤ -Al 2 O 3 rather than an immobilized molten salt as the separator.…”
