Capacitor recharge rate: T and t are different things here. Also according to ISO 80000 differential is in roman letter.

Based on his experiments, he suggests that the formula for calculating recharge rate is:


:<math> \displaystyle\frac{dC}{dT} = \frac{ 10C_{\rm{max}}}{T} \left( \sqrt{ \frac{C}{C_{\rm{max}}} } - \frac{C}{C_{\rm{max}}} \right) </math>
