The Cover Feature shows how a modular vanadium redox flow cell is used to examine electrolyte distributions in carbon electrodes by synchrotron X‐ray imaging. The impact of three different flow geometries on the flow dynamics is studied, and electrochemical characterizations are concurrently performed with X‐ray imaging to visualize the hydrogen evolution. More information can be found in the Full Paper by L. Eifert et al. on page 3154 in Issue 12, 2020 (DOI: 10.1002/cssc.202000541).
