GALVANOMETER

How Galvanometer works??



What is Galvanometer?

  • A galvanometer is a device which is used for detecting and indicating an electric current.
  • It is a one type of electromechanical device.
  • It is used for to indicate the direction of current flow in conductor.
  • A galvanometer is type of Ammeter.

Working Principle

  • Torque acts on a current carrying coil drape in the uniform magnetic field so coil make be rotates.
  • So detection of moving coil galvenogalva is directly proportional to the current flowing in the coil.

Construction

  • The construction of the moving iron galvanometer is shown in below image.


Working

  • Let take a coil PQRS which has L length and width 'b'. It's arrange in a such a way that the plane of coil stay parallel to the magnetic field. Here current through the coil is I.
  • Here coil sides PQ and RS perpendicular to the magnetic field so it's experience the force by each side.
  • F = B I L 
These forces are equal value but direction is opposite so torque tries to deflect the coil. This torque is given by below formula. 
  • T = B I L × b
  • T = B I A              ( L × b = A)
  •  T = n B I A  for n turn coil.

  • Due to this torque the coil plane rotates an angle Ѳ , but magnetic field is radial so this plane is always make be parallel to the magnetic field.
  • So here,
  • T proportional to Ѳ .  So, T = k Ѳ 
  • When equallibrium condition will come so that the restoring torque balance the deflecting torque.
  •   n B I A = k Ѳ 
  • So I proportional to Ѳ 
  • So when current is flow then the moving iron is moved in the direction of current.

Introduction to Arduino | Pin Function of Arduino | Working Process of Arduino Introduction to Arduino | Pin Function of Arduino | Working Process of Arduino Introduction To Arduino Arduino is an Italian company that designs and manufactures Open Source Hardware (Microcontroller) and Open Source software or IDE (Integrated Development Environment). Arduino hardware is such a programmable computerized platform, by working on which the user can combine the hardware and software and prepare the electronic brain according to his own and can control the electronic devices from that electronic brain. What is arduino? If you want to understand more easily, then we can say that Arduino microcontroller is an empty brain, in which you can upload memory by coding or programming through arduino software, so these are called open source. Arduino works like a CPU of a board computer. Right now the microcontroller of the arduino of this time that we can take up is lik

The microprocessor is capable of performing computing functions and making decisions to change the sequence of program execution. In large computers, the central processing unit(CPU) performs these computing functions and it is implemented on one or more circuit boards. The microprocessor is in many ways similar to the CPU, however, the microprocessor includes all the logic circuitry(including the control unit)on one chip. The microprocessor consists of the following three segments which is shown in below diagram. Block Diagram of Microproce

What is Instrumentation? And Modes of Measurement

What is Instrumentation? And Modes of Measurement Definition of Instrumentation The technology of using instruments to measure and control the physical and chemical properties of materials is called “ instrumentation ". What is Instrumentation? And Modes of Measurement When the instruments are used for the measurement and control of industrial manufacturing , conversion or treatment processes, the term process instrumentation is applied. When the measuring and controlling instruments are combined so that measurements provide impulses for remote automatic action, the result is called a control system. Modes of Measurement There are the three modes of measurement: 1. Primary Measurement 2. Secondary Measurement 3. Tertiary Measurement All the three modes are described below: (1) Primary Measurements In the primary measurement sought value of a parameter is determined by comparing it directly with reference standar
