(b) Figure Q2 shows the current profile applied to a battery and the
resulting behaviour of the terminal voltage.
i. Estimate the internal resistance of the battery as in the Rint
model.
ii. Copy the measured terminal voltage and on the same axes
sketch the terminal voltage that would be output by the R model
using your estimate of internal resistance, for the same current
profile.
iii. Give an advantage and a disadvantage of this type of model.
iv. Estimate the parameters of the battery as in the Thevenin model.
v. Explain how the Thevenin model could be further developed to
improve accuracy.
(c) For the battery described in part (b), at t=30 seconds calculate the
cooling power which would be required to achieve thermal equilibrium.
 (b) Figure Q2 shows the current profile applied to a battery
