Ion neutralization model of galvanic cell operation
An ion neutralization model of galvanic cell operation is developed. The electromotive force in this model is formed at the electrode interface owing to the different energies of conduction electrons bonds in electrodes. Constant continuous current is ensured by neutralization of electrolyte ions on the electrode surface. Charge capacity is determined by electrolyte volume and the rate of electrochemical degradation of electrode surfaces in the electrolyte. Potential energy of electrolyte ions serve as the energy source.
