According to one embodiment, this invention relates to a redox battery, comprising an electrochemical cell in fluid communication with anolyte and catholyte working electrolytes, and a primary vacuum voltage cell for measuring the potential difference between the electrolyte of the electrolyte. positive and negative working, and a reference vacuum voltage cell for measuring the potential difference between the reference cell working electrolyte, which is one of the anolyte and catholyte working electrolytes, and a reference electrolyte, the reference electrolyte having a known potential. According to another embodiment, the invention relates to a method of operating an oxidation-reduction battery, comprising the calculation of the potential values of the anolyte and catholyte working electrolytes on the basis of the known potential values of the reference electrolyte. and first and second potential difference values obtained from the primary vacuum voltage cell and the reference vacuum voltage cell. |
