1. A circuit for computing the energy remaining in a finite source of energy comprising:

  • a means for sensing the rate of energy dissipation from said source, means for modifying said sensed rate of energy dissipation to give the effective rate of energy dissipation, said effective rate accounting for the effect said rate of energy dissipation has on the energy available from said source, means for integrating said effective rate of energy dissipation, and means for comparing said integrated effective rate of energy dissipation with a value representing the initial energy capacity of said source to indicate the energy remaining in said source.
