Before it is possible to make precise measurements with the calorimeter system, it

must be calibrated. This is done by burning tablets of

FHUWLILHG EHQ]RLF DFLG

(see

accessories) with a known gross calorific value. This makes it possible to determine

the heat capacity (the C value) of the system based on the amount of heat that is

required to raise the temperature of the calorimeter system by 1 degree Kelvin. This

value is then used for subsequent determinations of gross calorific values.

The heat capacity is determined by the measurement cell and the decomposition

vessel. It has a substantial influence on the gross calorific value being determined,

and must especially be determined when the system is first placed in service, after

maintenance or repair work, and when parts are replaced.

Calibration must take place under the same conditions as will be found during sub-

sequent experiments. If measured quantities of substances (for example distilled

water or solutions) will be used in the decomposition vessel, exactly the same quan-

tity of these substances should be used during calibration.

In order to achieve precise results, you should take care that the combustion not

exceed an increase in temperature of 4 K. This applies as a rule of thumb if no

benzoic acid is being used during the calibration.

It should be mentioned here in advance that when determining gross calorific

values, the increase in temperature must be roughly the same as for the cali-

bration (for example 2 tablets – approximately 1 g of benzoic acid

2.6 K)

&RGLQJ

When working with the calorimeter system, a maximum of 4 decomposition vessels

can be used. The maximum for the duo-control system is 2 decomposition vessels

per measurement cell. This is possible by coding the decomposition vessels from 1

to 4. The system recognizes which decomposition vessel an experiment is being

performed with and assigns its calibration parameters to it.

To do this, attach the black coding rings into the recesses on the decomposition

vessel provided for this purpose.
