    Abstract: A method of estimating life of a nickel-metal hydride battery that accommodates a positive electrode plate and a negative electrode plate facing the positive electrode plate with a separator therebetween and containing a hydrogen absorbing alloy together with an electrolyte is disclosed. A charge phase of charging the nickel-metal hydride battery and a discharge phase of discharging the nickel-metal hydride battery after the charge phase constitutes one cycle for charge/discharge of the nickel-metal hydride battery. The method includes: determining a rate of change after one charge/discharge cycle of a surface area of the negative electrode plate which is a boundary face in contact with the electrolyte, and determining an amount of corrosion of the hydrogen absorbing alloy based on the rate of change accumulated for n charge/discharge cycles to estimate the life of the nickel-metal hydride battery based on the amount of corrosion.

    Abstract: A coil device includes two core members, one of which is E-shaped. The E-shaped core member has left and right side faces, and a center leg that extends in a vertical direction. A conducting wire is wound around a core, the core being composed of the two core members arranged to face each other in the vertical direction with a gap between the two core members. The conducting wire is wound around the center leg. First and second heat-sinking plates made of metal are bent so as to be in contact with upper and side faces of the core. The first and second plates are arranged so that first edges of the plates are placed left-right symmetrically with respect to the core with a gap between the edges. Second edges of the plates are in contact with a metal heat-sinking board where the core is placed.
