Method and apparatus for reducing battery charge time and energy consumption, as in a nickel metal hydride battery pack |
摘要 |
The present invention in one form provides for an improved battery charging apparatus and method comprising a controller and battery balancing system including an algorithm which monitors temperature of the battery pack and state of charge. These are factored for a charge efficiency through comparison to a pre-determined table of charge efficiency values, and then compared against a threshold charge efficiency below which charging is considered not optimal. The charging operation is discontinued in the event charge efficiency is below the threshold value.
