The current at which a cell or battery is charged. Generally expressed as a function of rated capacity. For instance, a charge rate of (0.4A for a 4Ah cell or battery is equal to C/10 or 0.1C5A).
The current applied to a battery to restore its energy capacity. The rate is typically normalized with respect to the battery's full capacity and a designated time period. Thus, the current necessary to nominally charge a 100-ampere-hour battery from zero to full charge in 5 hours (20 amperes) is referred to as the battery's C/5 rate. The term is also applied to discharge rate.
The rate at which current is applied to a secondary cell or battery to restore its capacity.
The current used to recharge a battery. Normally expressed as a percentage of total battery capacity. For instance, C/5 indicates a charging current equal to one fifth of the battery's capacity.
The current applied to a cell or battery to restore its available capacity. This rate is commonly normalized by a charge control device with respect to the rated capacity of the cell or battery.
The proper rate of current to use in charging a battery from an outside source. It is expressed in amperes and varies for different sized cells.
The amount of current applied to battery during the charging process. This rate is commonly expressed as a fraction of the capacity of the battery. For example, the C/2 or C/5.
The current at which a cell or battery is charged Generally expressed as a function of rated capacity. For instance, a charge rate of 0.4 A from a 4 Ah cell or battery is equal to C/10 or 0.1 C.
the amount of energy per unit time that is being added to the battery, commonly expressed as the ratio of rated capacity to charge duration in hours.
The current applied to a secondary cell to restore its capacity. This rate is commonly expressed as a multiple of the rated capacity of the cell. For example, the C/10 charge rate of a 500 Ah cell is expressed as, C/10 rate = 500 Ah / 10 h = 50 A. Charge, state of -- Condition of a cell in terms of the capacity remaining in the cell.
The current applied to a secondary cell or battery to restore its capacity. This rate is commonly expressed as a multiple of the rated capacity of the cell or battery. For example, the C/10 charge rate of a 500-Ah cell or battery is expressed as
The rate at which a battery is recharged. Normally expressed as a ratio of battery capacity to charging current. For instance, C/10 indicates the current that would recharge a battery in 10 hours (not factoring in loss for efficiency) and would indicate a 1 amp charge for a 10 Ah battery, a 10 amp charge for a 100Ah battery and a 22 amp charge for a 220Ah battery.
The battery charging current, in amperes, applied to a battery bank.
