Flat Spiral Spring Controlling Torque

Go Controlling Torque = (Youngs Modulus*Spring Width*Spring Thickness^3*Spring Angular Deflection)/(12*Spring Length)

Youngs Modulus of Flat Spring

Go Youngs Modulus = (12*Controlling Torque*Spring Length)/(Spring Width*Spring Thickness^3*Spring Angular Deflection)

Torque of moving Coil

Go Torque on Coil = Magnetic Field*Current Carrying Coil*Coil Turns Number*Cross Sectional Area

Strength of Magnetic Field

Go Magnetic Field = Former EMF/(Former Length*Former Breadth*Former Angular Speed)

EMF induced in portion below magnetic Field

Go Former EMF = Magnetic Field*Former Length*Former Breadth*Former Angular Speed

EMF generated in Former

Go Former EMF = Magnetic Field*Former Length*Former Breadth*Former Angular Speed

Maximum Fiber Stress in Flat Spring

Go Maximum Fiber Stress = (6*Controlling Torque)/(Spring Width*Spring Thickness^2)

Full-Scale Resistance Deviation

Go Full Scale Deviation = (Maximum Displacement Deviation*100)/Percent Linearity

Maximum Displacement Deviation

Go Maximum Displacement Deviation = (Full Scale Deviation*Percent Linearity)/100

Power Consumed at Full-Scale Reading

Go Power Consumed at Full Scale = Full Scale Current*Full Scale Voltage

Angular Speed of Former

Go Former Angular Speed = (2*Former Linear Velocity)/(Former Breadth)

Magnitude of Output Response

Go Output Response Magnitude = Sensitivity*Input Response Magnitude

Linear velocity of Former

Go Former Linear Velocity = (Former Breadth*Former Angular Speed)/2

Magnitude of Input

Go Input Response Magnitude = Output Response Magnitude/Sensitivity

Sensitivity

Go Sensitivity = Output Response Magnitude/Input Response Magnitude

Angular Deflection of Spring

Go Spring Angular Deflection = Controlling Torque/Spring Constant

Full-Scale Voltage Reading

Go Full Scale Voltage = Full Scale Current*Meter Resistance

Smallest reading(Xmin)

Go Smallest Reading = Largest Reading-Instrumentation Span

Largest Reading(Xmax)

Go Largest Reading = Instrumentation Span+Smallest Reading

Instrumentation Span

Go Instrumentation Span = Largest Reading-Smallest Reading

Angular Speed of Disc

Go Disc Angular Speed = Damping Torque/Damping Constant

Damping Constant

Go Damping Constant = Damping Torque/Disc Angular Speed

Damping Torque

Go Damping Torque = Damping Constant*Disc Angular Speed
