# Capacitor and supercapacitor energy storage # Scope: Ideal capacitor energy over a voltage interval. # Status: illustrative worked example; engineering review pending. # Inputs are example values. Checks are editable example requirements, not standards. capacitance = 10 F highVoltage = 12 V lowVoltage = 8 V energy := capacitance*(highVoltage^2-lowVoltage^2)/2 [J] check stored energy target: energy >= 300 J scenario alternative: capacitance = 8 F
