Summary of Test Method4.1 Heat of combustion is
21、 determined in this test method byburning a weighed sample in an oxygen bomb calorimeterunder controlled conditions. The heat of combustion is com-puted from temperature observations before, during, and aftercombustion, with proper allowance for thermochemical andheat transfer corrections. Either is
22、othermal or adiabatic calo-rimeter jackets can be used.4.1.1 Temperatures can be measured in degrees Celsius.4.1.1.1 Temperatures can be recorded in either degreesFahrenheit or ohms or other units when using electric ther-mometers. Use the same units in all calculations, includingstandardization.4.1
23、.2 Time is expressed in calculations in minutes anddecimal fractions thereof. It may be measured in minutes andseconds.4.1.3 Masses are measured in grams and no buoyancycorrections are applied.5. Significance and Use5.1 The heat of combustion is a measure of the energyavailable from a fuel. A knowle
24、dge of this value is essentialwhen considering the thermal efficiency of equipment forproducing either power or heat.5.2 The heat of combustion as determined by this testmethod is designated as one of the chemical and physicalrequirements of both commercial and military turbine fuels andaviation gas
25、olines.5.3 The mass heat of combustion, the heat of combustionper unit mass of fuel, is a critical property of fuels intended foruse in weight-limited craft such as airplanes, surface effectvehicles, and hydrofoils. The range of such craft betweenrefueling is a direct function of the heat of combust
