15、 material. Thespecific heat capacity of a typical portland cement and water is 0.75 and 4.18 J/g/K, respectively.3.1.7 thermal power, nthe heat production rate measured in joules per second (J/s).3.1.7.1 DiscussionThis is the property measured by the calorimeter. The thermal power unit of measure is
16、 J/s, which is equivalent to the watt. Thewatt is also a common unit of measure used to represent thermal power.4. Summary of Test Method4.1 PrincipleAn isothermal heat conduction calorimeter consists of a constant-temperature heat sink to which two heat-flowsensors and sample holders are attached i
17、n a manner resulting in good thermal conductivity. One heat-flow sensor and sampleholder contains the sample of interest. The other heat-flow sensor is a reference cell containing a blank sample that evolves no heat.The heat of hydration released by the reacting cementitious sample flows across the
18、sensor and into the heat sink. The output fromthe calorimeter is the difference in heat flow (thermal power) between the sample cell and the reference cell. The heat-flow sensoractually senses a small temperature gradient that develops across the device, however the heat is removed from the hydratin
19、gsample fast enough that, for practical purposes, the sample remains at a constant temperature (isothermal).4.2 The output from the heat-flow sensor is an electrical voltage signal that is proportional to the thermal power from thesample. This output must be calibrated to a known thermal power. In t
20、his method this is accomplished by measurements on a heatsource that emits a constant and known power level.thermal power. The integral of the thermal power over the time of the test isthe heat of hydration.Alternatively, a cementitious material with a known heat of hydration can be used for calibra
21、tion as describedin Appendix X1.4.3 Two methods are described. In Method A the sample and water are both temperature equilibrated and mixed inside thecalorimeter. This method is the most direct way to determine heat of hydration. In Method B the sample is mixed in the samplevial outside of the calor
22、imeter using temperature equilibrated materials then put into the calorimeter. This method offers certainpracticality, but depending on the materials being analyzed and procedures used for mixing and handling, this method may sufferfrom small errors due to periods of hydration being missed or spurio
23、us heat being introduced or taken away from the calorimeterduring setup or combinations thereof. Methods of correction are offered for these potential errors.5. Significance and Use5.1 This method is suitable for determining the total heat of hydration of hydraulic cement at constant temperature at
24、ages upto 7 days to confirm specification compliance. It gives test results equivalent toTest Method C186 up to 7 days of age (Poole (2007)(1).5.2 This method compliments Practice C1679 by providing details of calorimeter equipment, calibration, and operation. PracticeC1679 emphasizes interpretation
25、 significant events in cement hydration by analysis of time dependent patterns of heat flow, butdoes not provide the level of detail necessary to give precision test results at specific test ages required for specification compliance.6.

28、 to a constant-voltage power supply such that a stable output of 0.010 6 0.0002 J/s can begenerated (see Note 1).NOTE 1Asimple procedure for fabricating heaters and blanks having the same approximate shape and heat capacity as a sample is to make specimensimilar to one used in a determination out of
29、 plaster of Paris embedded with a small resistor. Plaster of Paris has only a transient heat of hydration andis not aggressive to electronic components. A resistance of 100-300 ohms is a convenient value when using voltages of 0.1-10 volts to drive heatproduction.C1702 1326.1.5 Reference SpecimenA s

This equipment is only required if an instrument does not cont
32、ain built-in calibrationcapability.NOTE 2A power output of at least 0.33 J/s is needed for most applications.6.1.8 Insulated ContainerUsed in the Method B described in 8.3.5.1. This device can be fabricated using a 500 mL(approximate volume) container insulated with at least 30 mm of polystyrene on
33、the sides and top.6.1.9 Temperature Measuring DeviceUsed in Method B described in 8.3.5.1. The device shall be capable of measuringtemperature changes to the nearest 0.1 C and of a physical configuration that allows it to operate in the confines of the insulatedcontainer described in 6.1.8.6.2 Calor
34、imeterThe schematic design of a calorimeter is given in Fig. 1. It shall consist of a sample holder for the test andreference specimens, each thermally connected to heat flow sensors, which are thermally connected to a constant-temperature heatsink. The actual design of an individual instrument, whe
35、ther commercial or homemade, may vary, but it should follow the criteriagiven below. Any other suitable arrangement that satisfies sections 6.2.1, 6.2.2, and 6.2.3 is acceptable.6.2.1 Instrument StabilityThe baseline shall exhibit a low random noise level and be stable against drift. This property s
36、hallbe verified on a new instrument and whenever there are questions about performance. The rate of change of the baseline measuredduring a time period of 3 days shall be 20 J/s per gram sample per hour of the test and a baseline random noise level of 10J/s per gram sample (see Note 3). In practice
37、the baseline is measured for 3 days and a straight line is fitted to the power (J/g/s)versus time (h) data using a linear regression procedure. The long term drift is then the slope in the line J/g/s/h and the baselinenoise level is the standard deviation (J/g/s) around this regression line.NOTE 3Th
38、e rationale for these limits is found in Poole (2007) (1).6.2.2 Instrument SensitivityThe minimum sensitivity for measuring power output shall be 100 J/s.6.2.3 Isothermal ConditionsThe instrument shall maintain the temperature of the sample to within 1 K of the thermostatedtemperature.6.3 Data Acqui
39、sition EquipmentData acquisition equipment may be built into the calorimeter instrument package, or it maybe an off-the-shelf, stand-alone, item. The data acquisition equipment shall be capable of performing continuous logging of thecalorimeter output measurement at a minimum time interval of 10 s.
40、It is useful, for purposes of reducing amount of data, to havethe flexibility to adjust the reading interval to longer times when power output from the sample is low. Some data acquisitionequipment is designed to automatically adjust reading intervals in response to power output. The equipment shall
41、 have at least4.5-digit-measuring capability, with an accuracy of 1 %, or comparable capabilities to condition the power output into the samequality as integrated signal amplifiers.7. Instrument Calibration7.1 Instrument CalibrationCommercially manufactured instruments designed for measuring heat of
42、 hydration of cementitiousmaterials may have instrument specific calibration procedures. Conform to these procedures if they exist. In addition, theinstrument shall be capable of providing data described in 7.1.1.1, 7.1.2.1, and 7.1.2.2, and calculations in 7.1.4. If there are noinstrument calibrati
43、on procedures, calibrate the instrument according to the following procedure. Calibration shall be at least atwo-point process. This is illustrated schematically in Fig. 2 Alternatively use a generic calibration procedure for a cementitiousmaterial with known heat of hydration as described in Append

45、1.1 Measure this baseline when it reaches a constant value (drift 20 J/s per gram sample per hour).7.1.1.2 Record this output as V0 for P0 = 0 (see Note 4).NOTE 4V0 may not be zero voltage, but may be a positive or negative number. The practice of using a test cell and a reference cell usually resul
46、tsin the V0 being a relatively small number but, depending on the variability in properties of some hardware, it may not be zero.FIG. 2 (A) Schematic Steady-State Calibration Using A 2-Point Calibration Process And (B) Multi-Point Calibration ProcessC1702 1347.1.2 Power in the heater circuit is rela
47、ted to voltage and resistance by the following equation:P 5I2R (1)where:P = power, J/s,I = applied current, amperes, andR = resistance, ohms.Apply sufficient voltage to the heater circuit to generate a heat output of approximately 0.1 J/s, measured to an accuracy of 5 %.7.1.2.1 Allow the output to s
48、tabilize signal at a drift of 0.1 % over 60 min or 0.05 % over 30 min.7.1.2.2 Record this output as V1 for a power P1 (see Note 5). This is the minimum requirement for a calibration sequence. Atthe users discretion any number of voltage levels may be used to characterize the operating range of the c
49、alorimeter.NOTE 5The early C3A reaction of a typical portland cement evolves a maximum power of about 0.02 J/s/g. The alite phase typically evolves heatat a maximum power of about 0.002 J/s/g during the first 24 h of hydration. A5 g sample then generates power peaks in the range of 0.10 J/s/g in thefirst few minutes after adding water, and in the range of 0.010 J/s/g in the first 24 h.7.1.3 Calibration CoeffcientsCalculate calibration coefficients by fitting the power versus voltage output data to a to amathematical relationship us
