Capacity
[defin­i­tion]
The nominal capacity origi­nates from the manufacturer’s data sheet, if avail­able. When the data sheet is unavail­able, the nominal capacity is estimated. Batemo measured the C/10 capacity by discharging the cell at an ambient temper­a­ture of 25°C from 100% with a constant current of 0.50A (0.1C) until reaching the voltage of 2.5V. The thermal boundary condi­tion is free convection.

C/10 4.91 Ah
Current
[defin­i­tion]
All quanti­ties are measure­ment results of the Batemo battery labora­tory. The contin­uous current is the highest current that completely discharges the cell without over-heating it. Therefor, the cell is discharged from 100% state of charge at an ambient temper­a­ture of 25°C with a constant current until reaching a residual state of charge of 10% and either the voltage of 2.5V or 90% of the maximum surface temper­a­ture of 63°C. The peak current is the current the cell can deliver for 5 minutes. Conse­quently, the cell is discharged from 100% SOC at an ambient temper­a­ture of 25°C with a constant current until reaching either the voltage of 2.5V or the surface temper­a­ture of 70°C after 5 minutes. The thermal boundary condi­tion is free convec­tion. These opera­tional condi­tions might be outside the speci­fi­ca­tion of the cell manufacturer.

Power
[defin­i­tion]
All quanti­ties are measure­ment results of the Batemo battery labora­tory. The mean contin­uous power is the highest power that completely discharges the cell without over-heating it. There­fore, the cell is discharged from 100% state of charge at an ambient temper­a­ture of 25°C with a constant current until reaching a residual state of charge of 10% and either the voltage of 2.5V or 90% of the maximum surface temper­a­ture of 63°C.

  • Discharge Charac­ter­is­tics: The electrical and thermal discharge behavior is strongly nonlinear.
  • Pulse Charac­ter­is­tics: The shape of different current pulses changes strongly.
  • Energy Charac­ter­is­tics: The graph visual­izes how much energy the cell can deliver when operated at different powers.
