// To find multiplier resistor // Modern Electronic Instrumentation And Measurement Techniques // By Albert D. Helfrick, William D. Cooper // First Edition Second Impression, 2009 // Dorling Kindersly Pvt. Ltd. India // Example 4-9 in Page 79 clear; clc; close; // Given data R_m = 50; //Internal resistance of the movement in ohm I_fsd = 1 *(10^-3); //current for full scale deflection in ampere E_rms = 10; // AC voltage applied to input terminals in volt //Calculation disp('Assuming zero forward resistance and infinite reverse resistance'); E_dc = round(2 *sqrt(2)*E_rms/%pi); R_t = E_dc / I_fsd; //Total circuit resistance R_s = R_t - R_m; //Calculating multiplier resistor printf("The value of the multiplier resistor, R_s = %d ohm",R_s); //Result // Assuming zero forward resistance and infinite reverse resistance // The value of the multiplier resistor, R_s = 8950 ohm
