The self-discharges of capacitor A 1for voltages of 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, and 2.5 V and at a temperature of 25◦C are illustrated in Fig. 9. The self-discharge rate is quite rapid for high voltages (1.5, 2.0, 2.5 V) and slow for the low voltages (0.5, 1.0 V). As a result, when the initial voltage reduces, the self-discharge rate diminishes as well.
While significant efforts are being made to improve the energy and power characteristics of electrochemical capacitor materials, the research into electrochemical capacitor (EC) self-discharge has lagged behind. Self-discharge is the voltage drop experienced by the EC while stored in the charged state.
The current study proposes the use of a kinetic model with a distribution of time-independent rate constants to fit to the experimental data for the self-discharge of supercapacitors.
Generally speaking, the higher capacitance capacitors appear to discharge more slowly. This shows that the overall test circuit is drawing sufficient current to negatively alter the results. Why? I thought this was a 10 trillion ohm input? Close inspection of the PCB shows flux residue from soldering. Flux residue, fibers, and other contaminants.
Effect of test circuit changes on 10 nF capacitor discharge measurements. Measuring the same 10 nF capacitor under the three different conditions shows that the time to discharge between 2.5 V and 2.3 V took 155 seconds, 293 seconds, and 1041 seconds respectively. So, cleaning the PCB or connecting directly to the input pins does make a difference.
In most cases the voltage is measured over a self-discharging supercapacitor, and it is therefore of interest to find its time-dependency according to the theory presented here. Let us assume that the charge stored is proportional to the voltage according Q (t)=C (t)V c (t), where C (t) is a time-dependent capacitance.
