S.No: 147 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS DIELECTRIC CONSTANT OF A SUBSTANCE By RESONANCE METHOD The unit is compiled on a 'HYLEM Board' with all its circuitry En. graved on it. Different components are also available on the board for the experiment : it @hnrrstrpieediic lonclant kik, variable Capacity fest Capacil (2) FORMULA USED =: connecting Wier, Sdiclectric Slabs Dielectric constant kis given by ee C, = Capacity of test capacitor without dielectic (it is given). C, = Capacity of variable air capacitor for maximum deflection in microammeter when test capacitor is without dielectric. = Capacity of variable air capacitor for maximum deflection in microammeter when test capacitor is filled with dielectric. PROCEDURE 1. Connect R.F.Oscillator(Dielectiic Constant Apparatus) terminals to the given variable capacitor's. Set the sensitivity of the meter at 0:5 by vari the sensitivity potentiometer knob. 2 Nowconnect another capacitor(test capacitor) to second terminals. 3. The frequancy of the oscillators fixed and is kept constant throughout the experiment 4. Keep test capacitor without dielectric and vari capacity of variable air capacitor So that deflection in microfiymeter is maximum, This value of Air Capacitor is C,. 5. Nowfill the test capacitor with dielectric, Again vari the capacity of varibale air Capacitor so that deflection in microammeter is maximum, Let this value of variable air capacitor be C,. No. Le FEM CONSTANT NIN st enue kis/~ For measuring dielectric of solids , connect capacitor plates in parallel with gang capacitor set meter for maximum resonance by variying the varibale capacitor. Put dielectric plates in between the gap of capacitor. Resonence changes retune the gange capacitor and ___ note the capacity. @® Precautions: T Test capacitor's plate must be tight when filled with dielectric meterial 2 Three sheets are provided for soild dielectic one sheet is 1.5mm thick and other two are mm each © Observations: Capacity of test capacitor, Gi pf Capacity of varibale air capacitor C, pf Capacity of variable air capacitor C, = pf Value of C, is given at diffferent gap © Gs ‘approximate [7 approximate rabeae | [4 peers Test Capacity 16 pr] -}— with dielectric] SPE a fe ar BPE ED | GamER| he GPPR by pa PPE Hh a z - sui GORE
