19、vers the determination of carbon inconcentrations from 0.005 % to 4.5 %.11. Summary of Test Method11.1 The carbon is converted to carbon dioxide by combus-tion in a stream of oxygen.11.1.1 Thermal Conductivity MethodThe carbon dioxideis absorbed on a suitable grade of zeolite, released by heatingthe
20、 zeolite, and swept by helium or oxygen into a chromato-graphic column. Upon elution, the amount of carbon dioxide ismeasured in a thermistor-type conductivity cell. Refer to Fig. 1.11.1.2 Infrared (IR) Absorption, Method A The amount ofcarbon dioxide is measured by infrared (IR) absorption. Car-bon
21、 dioxide (CO2) absorbs IR energy at a precise wavelengthwithin the IR spectrum. Energy of this wavelength is absorbedas the gas passes through a cell body in which the IR energy istransmitted. All other IR energy is eliminated from reachingthe detector by a precise wavelength filter. Thus, the absor
22、ptionof IR energy can be attributed to only CO2and its concentra-tion is measured as changes in energy at the detector. One cellis used as both a reference and a measure chamber. Totalcarbon, as CO2, is monitored and measured over a period oftime. Refer to Fig. 2.11.1.3 Infrared (IR) Absorption, Met
23、hod B The detectorconsists of an IR energy source, a separate measure chamberand reference chamber, and a diaphragm acting as one plate ofa parallel plate capacitor. During specimen combustion, theflow of CO2with its oxygen gas carrier is routed through themeasure chamber while oxygen alone passes t
24、hrough thereference chamber. Energy from the IR source passes throughboth chambers, simultaneously arriving at the diaphragm(capacitor plate). Part of the IR energy is absorbed by the CO2present in the measure chamber while none is absorbed passingthrough the reference chamber. This creates an IR en
25、ergyimbalance reaching the diaphragm, thus distorting it. Thisdistortion alters the fixed capacitance creating an electric signalchange that is amplified for measurement as CO2. Total carbon,as CO2, is monitored and measured over a period of time.Refer to Fig. 3.11.1.4 Infrared (IR) Absorption, Meth
26、od C, Closed LoopThe combustion is performed in a closed loop, where CO andCO2are detected in the same infrared cell. Each gas ismeasured with a solid state energy detector. Filters are used topass the appropriate IR wavelength to each detector. In theabsence of CO and CO2, the energy received by ea
27、ch detectoris maximum. During combustion, the IR absorption propertiesof CO and CO2gases in the chamber cause a loss of energy;therefore a loss in signal results which is proportional toconcentrations of each gas in the closed loop. Total carbon, asCO2plus CO, is monitored and measured over a period
28、 oftime. Refer to Fig. 4.11.2 This test method is written for use with commercialanalyzers, equipped to carry out the above operations automati-cally and calibrated using steels of known carbon content.12.
