Abstract :
This study deals with the dynamic and thermal behaviors of supercapacitors. Characterization is performed using the Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS) method to determine by experiment the supercapacitor´s series resistance (ESR) and capacitance according to the frequency. The study deals also the particular case of the supercapacitor´s spectra and the thermal shock. Finally, life test at constant temperature and the impact of the vibration on the supercapacitor´s parameters are illustrated.
