2.1 Sizing
A supercapacitor module is sized according to a set of specifications based on the power required and the duration over which the module is to deliver this power. The sizing methodology is illustrated by the diagram in figure 8 . This method consists of :
set voltage and current ratings ;
determine the total capacity of the supercapacitor module to be used ;
determine the number of elements to be connected in series N series and in parallel N parallel...
