| Charging | The process of supplying electrical energy for conversion to
stored chemical energy.
|
| | |
| Constant Current Charge | A charging process in which the current
applied to the battery is maintained at a constant value. |
| | |
| Constant Voltage Charge | A charging process in which the voltage
applied to a battery is held at a constant value. |
| | |
| Cutoff Voltage | The prescribed lower-limit voltage at which
battery discharge is considered complete. Also known as final voltage. |
| | |
| Cycle | One sequence of charge and discharge. |
| | |
| Cycle ( Shallow Cycle ) | Charge and discharge cycles which do not allow the
battery to approach its cutoff voltage. |
| | |
| Cycle : (Deep Cycle ) | Discharge until the battery reaches its cut-off voltage. |
| | |
| Cycle Life | For rechargeable batteries, the total number of
charge/discharge cycles the cell can sustain before the capacity is
significantly reduced. |
| | |
| Depth of Discharge | The amount of energy that has been removed from a
battery. Usually expressed as a percentage of the total capacity of the
battery.
|
| | |
| Discharge | The conversion of the chemical energy of the battery into
electric energy. |
| | |
| Discharge ( Deep ) | Removal of nearly all electrical energy to the
end-point voltage. |
| | |
| Discharge ( High-Rate ) | Large currents > 1C, such 2C, 3C etc ... |
| | |
| Discharge ( Low Rate ) | Small current removed from a battery smaller than 1C ( such as 0.1C ).
|
| | |
| Drain | Removal of energy from a cell. |
| | |
| Dry Cell | A cell containing a non-fluid electrolyte. This is achieved
by adding an inert metal oxide so that the electrolyte forms a gel or
paste. A primary cell in which the electrolyte is absorbed in a porous
medium, or is other wise restrained from flowing. |
