Performance and stress tests on Carbon based Power Capacitors 1. Scope of the tests Standard datasheets of ba0ery and supercapacitor cells o7en provide data that is only applicable in well controlled standardised condi:ons. Example are that charging has to be done at 0.5C (half of the nominal current and at a standard temperature of 25 °C). In real systems such condi:ons would be very restric:ve. In the following tests we wanted to have a be0er understanding of the proper:es of carbon based power capacitors that can operate at very different temperatures and can be charged and discharged at much higher currents. In addi:on, these tests have been set up as stress tests with e.g. applying maximum sustained current during the while tests and with rela:ve short relaxa:on intervals. These tests are not final but provide a base to start from for more elaborate tests. One conclusion that can already be drawn is that the power capacitors operate without any problem at higher currents and higher temperatures. However, the tests also showed the importance of relaxa:on periods. At high discharge rates not all available energy can be dumped into the load and relaxa:on allows to recover the residual energy. It is laos noted that the cells were 100% charged (stopped when current drops below 0,1 A rather than 0,02 A) to reduce the tes:ng :me. 1.1. Product Type Toomen carbon based power capacitor Cell.
