conditions. It is one of the fundamental properties of fire and should almost always be taken into account in any assessment of fire hazard since it significantly affects the development of the fire [ 1 ]. HRR is one of the properties of cone calorimetry. As
magnitude of the undercooling during solidification can also be measured [ 13 ]. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) is a powerful technique that measures the enthalpy change of a sample under controlled conditions, e.g. in solidification or phase
Abstract
This paper explains why directly agitated test cells are sometimes required in order to obtain good adiabatic calorimetry data that can be used with confidence to predict large scale plant behaviour. Experiments for methyl methacrylate polymerisation are reported. Simple procedures are presented for calculating genuine thermo-kinetic parameters from data which includes energy dissipation from the stirrer drive system.
Abstract
The paper gives a review on recent progress on new methods, instrumental innovations and new trends in low temperature calorimetry as reported in the last five years in the literature. The paper refers to establishing strictly adiabatic conditions, improved analysis of quasi-adiabatic experiments, high resolution adiabatic and isoperibol scanning calorimeters and microcalorimeters for the study of µ-samples.
The heat capacityC p of a sample can be considered as a frequency dependent quantity; its behaviour can reflect the dynamics of enthalpy fluctuations. In order to take into account the dynamic nature of the measured quantity, calorimetry can mimic experimental methods as those of dielectrometry, performing experiments in time domain or in frequency domain.
Abstract
Reaction calorimetry strongly penetrated process development laboratories in the fine chemicals industry. Applications of calorimetry to different fields of process optimization, chemical reactions and physical unit operations were developed. Applications were first developed in the field of process safety. The thermal data of reaction obtained in the calorimeters allow us to check if a reaction will be controllable at full scale under normal operating conditions and in case of equipment failure. Further, the accurate temperature control and heat flow measurement opened the door to more engineering related data, in the fields of phase equilibria like vapour liquid, solubilities, crystallization and also in the mixing techniques. Some examples of developments in these different fields will be reviewed.
molar heat capacities to an infinite dilution. These characteristics are usually calculated from flow calorimetry data. The authors [ 6 , 7 ] studied the set of tetraalkylammonium (TAA) bromides in MeOH and reported the values for Me 4 NBr
Calorimetry in the studies of cement hydration
Setting and hardening of Portland cement–calcium aluminate cement mixtures
Abstract
Calorimetry was applied to an investigation of the early hydration of Portland cement (PC)–calcium aluminate cement (CAC) pastes. The heat evolution measurements were related to the strength tests on small cylindrical samples and standard mortar bars. Different heat-evolution profiles were observed, depending on the calcium aluminate cement/Portland cement ratio. The significant modification of Portland cement heat evolution profile within a few hours after mixing with water was observed generally in pastes containing up to 25% CAC. On the other hand the CAC hydration acceleration effect was also obtained with the 10% and 20% addition of Portland cement. As one could expect the compressive and flexural strength development was more or less changed—reduced in the presence of larger amount of the second component in the mixture, presumably because of the internal cracks generated by expansive calcium sulfoaluminate formation.
