Research Topic: Cycle-life analysis of Soluble Lead Redox Flow Battery (SLRFB) by model-based understanding and flow engineering approaches

Advisor: Sanjeev Kumar Gupta

Research Interest:

  • Energy storage: redox flow batteries and supercapacitors
  • Heterogeneous electro crystallization
  • Electrochemical Sytems
  • Multiphysics systems modelling

Research Details:

My research is directed in investigating the failure modes of the Soluble Lead Redox Flow Battery (SLRFB) and engineering the flow of the electrolyte solution through a scalable solution in order to extend its cycle without adding any chemical additives in the electrolyte solution. For the former, I do use experiments and modelling approach to investigate the system. I also use COMSOL Multiphysics to employ CFD skillset for implementing flow engineering modifications.
