Part 3/4:
Employing a mathematical model, represented by a dotted line on the calibration graph, provides an excellent approximation of the cell's behavior. This model was generated automatically through Excel, demonstrating an outstanding fit to the observed data—achieving a correlation coefficient (R-squared) that nears three nines (0.999). Such accuracy validates the reliability of the model for predicting cell behavior under different power inputs.
This reliable approximation is crucial when operating outside the calibrated range. If conditions arise that produce excess heat, knowledge of how the core temperature and power interact is essential for maintaining safe and effective operations.
