TL;DR: In this paper, an all-vanadium redox flow battery (VRFB) was constructed with modified carbon paper electrodes in the high-performance no-gap design, and the roundtrip energy efficiency was improved from 63% to 76% at a current density of 200mV.

TL;DR: In this paper, a design optimization study of all-vanadium redox flow batteries (VRBs) is presented, including performance testing, distributed current measurements, and flow visualization. But the authors focus on the design of the flow field, not the best architecture, and instead focus on a more complex interplay between architecture, electrode properties, electrolyte properties, and operating conditions which combine to affect electrode convective transport.

TL;DR: In this paper, the Equal Path Length (EPL) flow field architecture was proposed and evaluated, which has superior mass transport characteristics in comparison with the standard serpentine and interdigitated designs at the expense of increased pressure drop.

TL;DR: In this article, a pulsating heat pipe (PHP) was designed and tested under conditions to simulate heat dissipation requirements of a proton exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cell stack.
