There are three common methods of charging a battery: constant voltage, constant current and a combination of constant voltage/constant current with or without a smart charging circuit. Constant voltage allows the full current of the charger to flow into the battery until the power supply reaches its pre-set voltage.
For the performance test, a constant current method is generally used where a constant current specified by the manufacturer is applied for an accompanying specified time. Battery manufacturers publish tables that include different discharge rates specified for different periods of time.
Constant current is a simple form of charging batteries, with the current level set at approximately 10% of the maximum battery rating. Constant current/constant voltage is a combination of the above two methods. The charger limits the amount of current to a pre-set level until the battery reaches a pre-set voltage level.
Constant current is a simple form of charging batteries, with the current level set at approximately 10% of the maximum battery rating. Charge times are relatively long with the disadvantage that the battery may overheat if it is over-charged, leading to premature battery replacement. This method is suitable for Ni-MH type of batteries.
Constant voltage allows the full current of the charger to flow into the battery until the power supply reaches its pre-set voltage. The current will then taper down to a minimum value once that voltage level is reached.
The transition between constant voltage and constant current is automatic. As an example, consider a 24V battery system (with a maximum float voltage of 28V) and discharged down to 15V. When the discharged battery (at 15V) is connected to the power supply, the battery will start to charge at the pre-set constant current level.
