Using the Transfer Function of an Isoperibolic Reaction Calorimeter for Thermo-kinetic Analysis

It is an aim of the present work to determine the chemical heat flow rate of a reaction without explicitly solving the heat balance equations. Therefore, it is necessary to calculate the heat flow rate directly from the temperature course of an experimentally determined reaction. For this transformation the transfer function of the calorimeter is needed 1 . An isoperibol reaction calorimeter was used for the experiments. With different calibrations and gained transfer functions, it is shown that the chemical heat flow rate can be determined from the temperature course of a reaction. The evaluation is fast and easy to use, which improves automation and prevents possible input errors.

A versatile and high-precision solution—reaction isoperibol calorimeter

A new solution-reaction isoperibol calorimeter was developed to measure enthalpies of solution and reaction. A new system of sample cell was developed to avoid the breaking of glass ampoules, hence making the sample cell reusable. The system is suitable for measuring molar enthalpies of solid-liquid and liquid-liquid interactions at different temperatures. The reproducibility and accuracy of the apparatus were tested by measuring the enthalpy of solution of KCl in water at 298.15 K and the enthalpy of protonation of THAM in HCl (0.1 M) at 298.15 K. The results showed the uncertainty taken as the reproducibility was ±0.3% and the difference with the literature values was within ±0.5%.

A high sensitivity titration calorimeter using pyroelectric sensor

A new sensitive isothermal titration microcalorimeter using polyvinylidene difluoride (PVDF) as detector has been developed. Heat pulses of less than 0.4 μJ can be detected and the baseline noise level (p-p) is 40 nW. The calorimeter is constructed with one reaction cell (0.7 ml) insulated by several radiation shields inside a vacuum chamber. The performance of the instrument was examined by measuring the heat of protonation of Tris with HCl. The enthalpy of reaction was found to be ?49±1 kJ·mol^?1, in good agreement with the reported value of ?47.5 kJ·mol^?1.     

Heat conduction effects during the calorimetric determination of absorbed dose to water in radiotherapy beams

A transportable water calorimeter for the determination of the quantity of absorbed dose to water in radiotherapy beams has been developed at the PTB and is presented in detail in this investigation. Heat conduction effects occurring in the calorimeter are studied for different lateral sizes of high-energy photon beams, for different depth dose distributions of electron beams and for a scanned-beam irradiation with a heavy ion beam. The corresponding correction factors are calculated and arguments are given under which conditions these can adequately be applied.     

Investigation on spontaneous ignition of two kinds of organic material with water

A systematic investigation was performed to elucidate the cause of spontaneous ignition of Refuse Derived Fuel (RDF) and Meat Bone Meal (MBM). Heat generation in both RDF and MBM with addition of water liquid and vapor at room temperature was determined by isothermal calorimetry. Compared with water liquid, the heat of wetting by sorption of water vapor at 80% relative humidity and 25 °C was larger, which can raise the temperature of RDF and MBM more than 30 and 56 °C, respectively. Heat generation due to fermentation occurred and the temperature of RDF and MBM reached or exceeded 80 °C after 5 days for RDF and 4 days for MBM at 100% RH. The spontaneous ignition for RDF and MBM results from heat of wetting and fermentation at room temperature and a further exothermic reaction at higher temperature.     

Determination of the enthalpy of fusion of K3TaF8 and K3TaOF6

The areas of the fusion and crystallization peaks of K₃TaF₈ and K₃TaOF₆ have been measured using the DSC mode of the high-temperature calorimeter (SETARAM 1800 K). On the basis of these quantities and the temperature dependence of the used calorimetric method sensitivity, the values of the enthalpy of fusion of K₃TaF₈ at temperature of fusion 1039 K: Δ_fusH_m(K₃TaF₈; 1039 K) = (52 ± 2) kJ mol⁻¹ and of K₃TaOF₆ at temperature of fusion 1055 K: Δ_fusH_m(K₃TaOF₆; 1055 K) = (62 ± 3) kJ mol⁻¹ have been determined.
