Measurement of time to recharge an empty MLR003 battery LTO 500mAh from a radiator with 45°C flow temperature:
Measured by M Schmidt
TIME TO FULLY CHARGE 500mAh FROM 45°C FLOW = ~30 DAYS @ 24hour operation
Measurement of real harvesting and charge current into the battery (net charge current):
Measured by M Schmidt
Vorlauf | Flow temperature |
I battery | Actual charge current into battery Peak current behavior at harvesting start due to highest temperature gradient between source and sink |
MPPT | Maximum power point tracking |
VBAT | Charge current increases when V battery is lower |
