21、unit of measurement employed in this test methodis the joule with the heat of combustion reported in megajoules perkilogram.4. Summary of Test Method4.1 Heat of combustion is determined in this test method byburning a weighed sample in an oxygen bomb calorimeterunder controlled conditions. The heat
22、of combustion is com-puted from temperature observations before, during, and aftercombustion, with proper allowance for thermochemical andheat transfer corrections. Either isothermal or adiabatic calo-rimeter jackets can be used.4.1.1 Temperatures can be measured in degrees Celsius.4.1.1.1 Temperatu
23、res can be recorded in either degreesFahrenheit or ohms or other units when using electric ther-mometers. Use the same units in all calculations, includingstandardization.4.1.2 Time is expressed in calculations in minutes anddecimal fractions thereof. It may be measured in minutes andseconds.4.1.3 M
24、asses 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 knowledge of this value is essentialwhen considering the thermal efficiency of equipment forproducing either power or heat.5.2 The h
25、eat of combustion as determined by this testmethod is designated as one of the chemical and physicalrequirements of both commercial and military turbine fuels andaviation gasolines.5.3 The mass heat of combustion, the heat of combustionper unit mass of fuel, is a critical property of fuels intended
26、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 combustion anddensity of the fuel.6.
