A system having an electrochemical storage device is provided including an anode chamber filled with anode material and cathode chamber filled with cathode material. The anode chamber is separated from the cathode chamber by ion-conducting solid body electrolytes. The anode chamber is defined on one side by the solid body electrolytes, and on the other side by a wall surrounding the solid body electrolytes. The device has a head part to receive and/or supply electric energy, base part arranged opposite the head part and at least one lateral part having at least one wall between the head and base part. At least one heat dissipating device receives heat from the electrochemical storage device via a first surface and/or to supply heat thereto and to supply and/or receive heat via a second surface. A receiving section is in thermal contact with the heat dissipating device.

Heat dissipating device for an electrochemical storage device

An electrochemical storage device including a state detector, has an electrochemical storage device, which has a wall that surrounds an electrochemical storage material. The state detector has at least one ultrasonic transmitter and at least one ultrasonic receiver, which are attached to the side of the wall facing away from the electrochemical storage material. The electrochemical storage material is subject to a volume change during operation of the storage device, and the electrochemical storage material is liquid during operation of the storage device and is in direct contact with the wall and the ultrasonic transmitter and the ultrasonic receiver are attached to the wall in such a way that the ultrasonic transmitter and the ultrasonic receiver are acoustically coupled to the wall.

Electrochemical storage device having a state detector

An electrochemical storage device is provided including an anode chamber filled with anode material, and a cathode chamber filled with cathode material. The anode chamber is separated from the cathode chamber by ion-conducting solid body electrolyte, and is limited on one side at least partially by the solid body electrolyte, and to the other side at least partially by a wall surrounding at least partially the solid body electrolytes. The electrochemical storage device has a head part where electric energy is guided to and/or taken away from, a base part arranged opposite the head part, and at least one lateral part including at least one wall arranged between the head and base part. At least one first area and second area are formed between the wall and the solid body electrolyte, both areas being different with respect to the respective distance between the wall and solid body electrolyte.

Shape-adapted electrochemical storage device for uniform temperature distribution

An electrochemical storage device has an anode chamber filled with anode material during operation, and a cathode chamber filled with cathode material. The anode chamber is separated from the cathode chamber by solid body electrolyte guiding ions, and the anode chamber is limited on one side by the solid body electrolyte, on another side by a wall at least partially surrounding the solid body electrolyte. The wall is surrounded by a head part of the device, by a base part arranged opposite the head part and/or by a lateral part arranged between the head and base part. The wall has an electrical conductive wall section as an anode to the anode chamber, an at least partially flat, electrical conductive line section electrically connected to the wall section by a surface, and conductivity per surface of the line section greater than conductivity of the wall per surface of the wall section.
