General design of critically damped galvanometers
Year: 1916
This paper discusses the relations between (1) the operation constants, namely, the external critical resistance, the deflection and ballistic periods, and the sensitivity in the particular conditions for use in which the galvanometer is intended, and (2) the intrinsic constants, namely, the inertia, damping, restoring, and displacing constants and the resistance, for critically damped galvanometers. The best relations for these quantities for attaining the desired sensitivity whether to voltage or current or to voltage or current impulses, are indicated, and an outline of the design of galvanometers to give specific performances for each of these purposes is given. The detail design is only brie
