  2. Lithium iron phosphate battery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lithium_iron_phosphate_battery

    The lithium iron phosphate battery (LiFePO 4 battery) or LFP battery (lithium ferrophosphate) is a type of lithium-ion battery using lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO 4) as the cathode material, and a graphitic carbon electrode with a metallic backing as the anode.

    Under certain conditions, some battery chemistries are at risk of thermal runaway, leading to cell rupture or combustion.As thermal runaway is determined not only by cell chemistry but also cell size, cell design and charge, only the worst-case values are reflected here.

  4. Lithium iron phosphate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lithium_iron_phosphate

    Arumugam Manthiram and John B. Goodenough first identified the polyanion class of cathode materials for lithium ion batteries. [9] [10] [11] LiFePO4 was then identified as a cathode material belonging to the polyanion class for use in batteries in 1996 by Padhi et al. [12] [13] Reversible extraction of lithium from LiFePO

  5. State of charge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/State_of_charge

    State of charge (SoC) quantifies the remaining capacity available in a battery at a given time and in relation to a given state of ageing. [1] It is usually expressed as percentage (0% = empty; 100% = full). An alternative form of the same measure is the depth of discharge , calculated as 1 − SoC (100% = empty; 0% = full).

  6. Peukert's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peukert's_law

    For example, starting a car is safe even if the lead–acid battery dies. The primary fire hazard with lead–acid batteries occurs during over-charging when hydrogen gas is produced. This danger is easily controlled by limiting the available charge voltage, and ensuring ventilation is present during charging to vent any excess hydrogen gas.

  7. Rechargeable battery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rechargeable_battery

    [6] [7] The higher the required discharge rate of a battery, the better matched the cells should be, both in the type of cell and state of charge, in order to reduce the chances of cell reversal. In some situations, such as when correcting NiCd batteries that have been previously overcharged, [ 8 ] it may be desirable to fully discharge a battery.

  8. Depth of discharge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Depth_of_discharge

    While the state of charge is usually expressed using percentage points (0 % = empty; 100 % = full), depth of discharge is either expressed using units of Ah (e.g. for a 50 Ah battery, 0 Ah is full and 50 Ah is empty) or percentage points (100 % is empty and 0 % is full). The capacity of a battery may also be higher than its nominal rating.

  9. Automotive battery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automotive_battery

    A typical 12 V, 40 Ah lead-acid car battery. An automotive battery, or car battery, is a rechargeable battery that is used to start a motor vehicle.. Its main purpose is to provide an electric current to the electric-powered starting motor, which in turn starts the chemically-powered internal combustion engine that actually propels the vehicle.
