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 | 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...

Variable Inductance Transducer | Classification Of Variable Inductance Transducer

Variable Inductance Transducer | Classification Of Variable Inductance Transducer Variable Inductance Transducer | Classification Of Variable Inductance Transducer These are based on a change in the magnetic characteristic of an electrical circuit in response to a measurand which may be displacement, velocity, acceleration etc. Variable inductive transducer may be classified as follows: 1.Self-generating type In this type voltage is generated because of the relative motion between a conductor and a magnetic field. These may be further classified as follows: (A)Electromagnetic type (B)Electrodynamic type (C)Eddy current type 2.Passive type In this type the motion of an object results in change in the inductance of the coils of the transducer. These may be further classified as follows: (A)Variable reluctance (B)Mutual inductance (C)Differential transfer type 1.Self-generating Type (A)Eleotromagnetic t...
