Description: An experimental and computational study design will be used to determine if the most likely origin of the energy gains, observed during inductive pulse charging (IPC), arising from either internal enthalpy changes within the battery or from the local environment, acting as part of an open system with the battery and the pulse generating device. The study will use a ‘repeated measures’ methodology, putting two types of battery, Pb-Acid and Lithium Iron Phosphate, through IPC and, after each charging session, through a discharge process to measure the available charge and energy for a specific Depth of Discharge (DoD). The testing methodology for the IPC stage will be the same as used in the first study. Any correlation between the predicted battery capacity, derived from the CoP value and the total energy influx and calculated from quantitative chemistry and thermodynamic calculations specific to the relevant battery, and the measured battery capacity, will provide statistical evidence for or against the main hypothesis. A statistical degree of confidence for the correlation will be determined to support the results and conclusions.
