A flow battery, or redox flow battery (after ), is a type of where is provided by two chemical components in liquids that are pumped through the system on separate sides of a membrane. inside the cell (accompanied by current flow through an external circuit) occurs across the membrane while the liquids circulate in their respective spaces.

It can be divided into two parts: One is to ensure that the battery has enough space to expand; another part is to prevent water from entering the battery through the ventilation holes in order to avoid short-circuit caused by corrosion or electrolysis.
