Battery Energy Formula
The following equation is used to calculate the Battery Energy.
BE = V*I*T *3600
- Where BE is the Battery Energy (Joules)
- V is the voltage (volts)
- I is the current (amps)
- T is the time (hours)
How to Calculate Battery Energy?
The following example problems outline the steps and information needed to calculate the Battery Energy.
Example Problem #1
- First, determine the voltage (volts). In this example, the voltage (volts) is determined to be 3 .
- Next, determine the current (amps). For this problem, the current (amps) is measured to be 4 .
- Next, determine the time (hours). In this case, the time (hours) is found to be 5.
- Finally, calculate the Battery Energy using the formula above:
BE = V*I*T *3600
Inserting the values from above and solving the equation yields:
BE = 3*4*5 *3600 = 216000 (Joules)
Example Problem #2
Using the same method as above, first, we need to measure or determine the variables required by the equation. For this example problem, these are provided as follows:
voltage (volts) = 6
current (amps) = 9
time (hours) = 8
Enter these given values into the calculator or above yields:
BE = 6*9*8 *3600 = 1555200 (Joules)
