Determination of the heating values of solid and gaseous fuels in a horizontal calorimeter
Article No: P3021367
Experimental setup to determine the heating capacities of foodstuffs, commercially available solid fuels and gases. Benefits Glass jacket system easily expandable Illustrative experimental setup Tasks Determine the calorific values of solid foodstuffs (bread, meat, cooked egg white, etc.) Determine the heating values of gases (natural gas, ethane, propane, butane, etc.) Calculate the heating values and calorific values from the amount of the substance burned and the amount of heat measured with the calorimeter Learning objectives Heating values Calorific value of foodstuffs, solid fuels and gases Heating capacity Calorimeter Necessary accessories Precision balance 620g/0.001g
