Basics: Cell Parameters AC Influence on Charge

Abstract

The influence of alternating current (ac) on the operations within a cell is a very broad area of interest. In fact, direct current responses can be considered as being a special case of an ac response where the cycle has a very long period. The approach taken in this presentation is to provide an overview by addressing the ac influence as a collection of special interest areas. This article shall address the following issues: RMS Heating, the application of a battery as a static filter for an alternator output, Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopic (EIS) methodologies, pulsing of lead acid batteries during charge, and chaotic oscillatory behavior. This should give an indication of the scope of the ac influence.
