11、hermal heat conduction calorimeterconsists of a constant-temperature heat sink to which twoheat-flow sensors and sample holders are attached in a mannerresulting in good thermal conductivity. One heat-flow sensorand sample holder contains the sample of interest. The otherheat-flow sensor is a refere

The output from the calorimeter is the differencein heat flow (thermal power) between the sample cell and thereference cell. The he

16、r practical purposes, the sample remains at a constanttemperature (isothermal).4.2 The output from the heat-flow sensor is an electricalvoltage signal that is proportional to the thermal power fromthe sample. This output must be calibrated to a known thermalpower. In this method this is accomplished
17、 by measurementson a heat source that emits a constant and known power level.The integral of the thermal power over the time of the test is theheat of hydration.4.3 Two methods are described. In MethodAthe sample andwater are both temperature equilibrated and mixed inside thecalorimeter. This method
18、 is the most direct way to determineheat of hydration. In Method B the sample is mixed outside ofthe calorimeter then put into the calorimeter. This methodoffers certain practicality, but depending on the materials beinganalyzed and procedures used for mixing and handling, thismethod may suffer from
19、 small errors due to periods ofhydration being missed or spurious heat being introduced ortaken away from the calorimeter during setup or combinationsthereof. Methods of correction are offered for these potentialerrors.5. Significance and Use5.1 This method is suitable for determining the total heat
20、 ofhydration of hydraulic cement at constant temperature at agesup to 7 days to confirm specification compliance. It gives testresults equivalent to Test Method C186 up to 7 days of age(Poole (2007) (4).5.2 This method compliments Practice C1679 by providingdetails of calorimeter equipment, calibrat
21、ion, and operation.Practice C1679 emphasizes interpretation significant events incement hydration by analysis of time dependent patterns ofheat flow, but does not provide the level of detail necessary togive precision test results at specific test ages required forspecification compliance.6.

Any other suitablearrangement that satisfies sections 6.2.1, 6.2.2, and 6.2.3 isacceptable.6.2.1 Instrument Stab
32、ilityThe baseline shall exhibit a lowrandom noise level and be stable against drift. This propertyshall be verified on a new instrument and whenever there arequestions about performance. The rate of change of thebaseline measured during a time period of 3 days shall be#20J/s per gram sample per hour
33、 of the test and a baseline randomnoise level of #10 J/s per gram sample (see Note 3). Inpractice the baseline is measured for 3 days and a straight lineis fitted to the power (J/g/s) versus time (h) data using a linearregression procedure. The long term drift is then the slope inthe line J/g/s/h an
34、d the baseline noise level is the standarddeviation (J/g/s) around this regression line.NOTE 3The rationale for these limits is found in Poole (2007) (4).6.2.2 Instrument SensitivityThe minimum sensitivity formeasuring power output shall be 100 J/s.6.2.3 Isothermal ConditionsThe instrument shall mai
35、n-tain the temperature of the sample to within1Kofthethermostated temperature.6.3 Data Acquisition EquipmentData acquisition equip-ment may be built into the calorimeter instrument package, orit may be an off-the-shelf, stand-alone, item. The data acqui-sition equipment shall be capable of performin
36、g continuouslogging of the calorimeter output measurement at a minimumtime interval of 10 s. It is useful, for purposes of reducingamount of data, to have the flexibility to adjust the readinginterval to longer times when power output from the sample islow. Some data acquisition equipment is designe
37、d to automati-cally adjust reading intervals in response to power output. Theequipment shall have at least 4.5-digit-measuring capability,with an accuracy of 1 %, or comparable capabilities to condi-tion the power output into the same quality as integrated signalamplifiers.7. Instrument Calibration7
38、.1 Instrument CalibrationCommercially manufacturedinstruments designed for measuring heat of hydration ofcementitious materials may have instrument specific calibra-tion procedures. Conform to these procedures if they exist. Inaddition, the instrument shall be capable of providing datadescribed in 7
39、.1.1.1, 7.1.2.1, and 7.1.2.2, and calculations in7.1.4. If there are no instrument calibration procedures, cali-brate the instrument according to the following procedure.Calibration shall be at least a two-point process. This isillustrated schematically in Fig. 2.7.1.1 Mount the resistance heater an
40、d the blank specimen intheir respective measuring cells and start data collection. Thisstep measures the baseline calorimeter output (in units of V ormV) when no heat is being generated.7.1.1.1 Measure this baseline when it reaches a constantvalue (drift # 20 J/s per gram sample per hour).7.1.1.2 Re
41、cord this output as V0for P0= 0 (see Note 4).NOTE 4V0may not be zero voltage, but may be a positive or negativenumber. The practice of using a test cell and a reference cell usually resultsin the V0being a relatively small number but, depending on the variabilityin properties of some hardware, it ma
42、y not be zero.FIG. 2 (A) Schematic Steady-State Calibration Using A 2-Point Calibration Process And (B) Multi-Point Calibration ProcessC1702 09a37.1.2 Power in the heater circuit is related to voltage andresistance by the following equation:P 5 I2R (1)where:P = power, J/s,I = applied current, ampere
43、s, andR = resistance, ohms.Apply sufficient voltage to the heater circuit to generate a heatoutput of approximately 0.1 J/s, measured to an accuracy of5%.7.1.2.1 Allow the output to stabilize signal at a drift of#0.1 % over 60 min or #0.05 % over 30 min.7.1.2.2 Record this output as V1for a power P1
44、(see Note 5).This is the minimum requirement for a calibration sequence.Atthe users discretion any number of voltage levels may be usedto characterize the operating range of the calorimeter.NOTE 5The early C3A reaction of a typical portland cement evolvesa maximum power of about 0.02 J/s/g. The alit
45、e phase typically evolvesheat at a maximum power of about 0.002 J/s/g during the first 24 h ofhydration. A5 g sample then generates power peaks in the range of 0.10J/s/g in the first few minutes after adding water, and in the range of 0.010J/s/g in the first 24 h.7.1.3 Calibration CoeffcientsCalcula
46、te calibration coeffi-cients by fitting the power versus voltage output data to a to amathematical relationship using standard curve fitting tech-niques. Power (P), in units of J/s (or watts), is the dependentvariable (y) in the calibration equation, and output voltage (V),in units of mV, is the ind
47、ependent variable (x). This equation isthen used to translate mV output to power units meaningful forcalculating heat flow (see Note 6).NOTE 6A linear calibration equation is found to be suitable in manyinstruments over the operating range necessary to analyze portlandcements, as in the following eq
48、uation: P = A + BV. In this case, the fittedcoefficients A (y-axis intercept) and B (slope) are in units of J/s andJ/s/mV, respectively.7.1.4 In a multi-channel instrument containing several calo-rimeters, all channels shall be calibrated individually. How-ever, it is possible to calibrate all calor
49、imeters simultaneouslyusing multiple resistance heaters and having the same currentpassing through the heaters in all calorimeter cells.7.1.5 Calibration shall be executed at regular intervals todetermine the calibration coefficient. The length of the timeintervals between calibrations is dependent on the instrumentand the personnel, and must be determined empirically. If thecalibration coefficient differs more than 2 % from one calibra-tion to the next, then calibrations intervals must be reduceduntil this stability limit is reached.8. Proced
