How to determine the practical constant current rate of charging phase of a Lithium battery?

As discussed earlier, terminal voltages would never exceed the CV value (4.2V for Li-Ion cell) while charging: If that's the case, the CC value should be the current value at the time the terminal voltages just reached to the CV value. Could we…
