Abstract

In this paper, the use possibility was analyzed of the most wellknown generalized Peukert’s equations, for computing of released capacity of nickel-cadmium batteries at different discharge currents. It was proved that these equations correspond well to experimental data throughout the entire variation interval of discharge currents. It was shown that the parameter n does not depend on a nominal capacity of a batteries under examination. Farther, it was shown that a functional dependence of a battery’s released capacity with a discharge current is determined by the statistical phase transition subjected to the normal distribution law.
