Derive the expression for electrical-loading nonlinearity error (percentage) in a rotatory potentiometer in terms of the angular displacement, maximum displacement (stroke), potentiometer element resistance, and load resistance. Plot the percentage error as a function of the fractional displacement for the three cases: RL/RC = 0.1, 1.0, and 10.0

The plot for percentage error as a function of fractional displacement ( ) for the values of 0.1,1.0,10.0 is shown in image attached below.

Explanation:

Electrical loading non linearity error (percentage) is shown below.

×

where Q= displacement of the slider arm

maximum displacement of a stroke

here

total resistance of potentiometer.

Now the nonlinearity error in percentage is

The following attached file shows nonlinear error in percentage as a function of  displacement with given values 0.1, 1.0, 10.0. The plot is drawn using MATLAB.

The MATLAB code is given below.
