Abstract
- Liquid metal batteries (LMBs) are introduced as future candidates for grid scale electricity storage. Their completely liquid cell interior entails a prominent role of fluid mechanics to understand and model their behaviour. We describe the equations used to compute electrochemical reactions, heat and mass transfer, electromagnetic fields, and fluid flow and explain the simplifications that can be made in the case of LMBs. The implementation of solution algorithms in OpenFOAM pertaining to domain coupling, multiphase simulations, mesh mapping, and operator discretisation are discussed in detail and accompanied by example code.
