Technical FAQs 3

How does internal resistance affect battery voltage?

Effect of internal resistance: According to the formula Terminal Voltage = Open Circuit Voltage − Current × Internal Resistance, when a high current (e.g., during acceleration or startup) flows, the internal resistance causes a voltage drop within the battery.

How do you know if a battery is bad?

By periodically measuring DCIR and comparing it to the cell’s initial factory value, one can accurately assess SOH and remaining useful life. Larger increases in DCIR generally indicate more severe capacity fade. Power = Voltage × Current: A battery’s output power depends on its terminal voltage and the current it can deliver.

How do you measure DC internal resistance?

DC internal resistance measurement typically employs the current pulse method. The principle is as follows: Apply a constant current pulse to the battery. Record the instantaneous change in battery voltage. R = ΔV / ΔI
