Open Cell Voltage

  • The voltage across positive and negative terminal of battery while not discharging current to a load

  • The internal resistance of the battery causes the OCV to decrease when current is discharged from it.

...

Voltage Lookup

  • Accurate voltage measurements can be made while a cell is resting

  • The relation between capacity and voltage is non-linear. A typical model is shown below

...

  • Involves counting the charges going into the battery by integrating the current

  • Requires knowledge of the initial amount of charges

...

  • Defining Q as the total capacity of the battery in Ah/mAh leaves us with the following equation sets of equations
