LITHIUM ION BATTERY MODULE
A lithium-ion battery module includes a housing having a plurality of partitions configured to define a plurality of compartments within a housing. The battery module also includes a lithium-ion cell element provided in each of the compartments of the housing. The battery module further includes a cover coupled to the housing and configured to route electrolyte into each of the compartments. The cover is also configured to seal the compartments of the housing.
Internally manifolded flow cell for an all-iron hybrid flow battery
In one example, a system for a flow cell for a flow battery, comprising: a first flow field; and a polymeric frame, comprising: a top face; a bottom face, opposite the top face; a first side; a second side, opposite the first side; a first electrolyte inlet located on the top face and the first side of the polymeric frame; a first electrolyte outlet located on the top face and the second side of the polymeric frame; a first electrolyte inlet flow path located within the polymeric frame and coupled to the first electrolyte inlet; and a first electrolyte outlet flow path located within the polymeric frame and coupled to the first electrolyte outlet. In this way, shunt currents may be minimized by increasing the length and/or reducing the cross-sectional area of the electrolyte inlet and electrolyte outlet flow paths.

System for water collection and redistribution in vehicle
A system for water collection and redistribution in a vehicle is provided. The system includes a storage tank for receiving water condensate from an air conditioner (AC) of the vehicle and store the water condensate. A wiper tank is positioned above the storage tank for receiving the water condensate from the storage tank. Further, a cooling coil is positioned adjacent to a radiator of the vehicle. A slanted pipe having an upper end in fluid communication with the wiper tank and a lower end in fluid communication with the cooling coil. The wiper tank discharges excess water condensate by gravity to the cooling coil via the slanted pipe to cool the radiator, when the water condensate reaches a certain level in the wiper tank.
Frozen/chilled fluid for pipelines and for storage facilities
Methods for managing a hazardous fluid within a pipeline and within a storage facility, and in particular for managing a potential or actual leak of the hazardous fluid. Such methods include the detection of such an event by one or more sensors, and the containment and the mitigation of the event.
