FAQs of Calorimeter:

Q: How is the calorimeter used to measure the heat of combustion?

A: To measure the heat of combustion, a known mass of fuel sample is placed inside the calorimeter vessel. The temperature change, monitored precisely by the thermometer (graduated at 0.1C intervals), is recorded as the sample combusts. The resulting temperature change allows calculation of the calorific value using standard calorimetric equations.

Q: What are the main benefits of the pressure release lid and heat-insulated design?

A: The pressure release lid enhances operational safety, preventing accidental over-pressurization during combustion testing. The heat-insulated construction minimizes heat loss, ensuring higher accuracy in temperature measurements and making the calorimeter both efficient and safe to use.

Q: When should the calorimeter be cleaned, and how do you maintain it?

A: It is best to clean the calorimeter after each use to prevent residue buildup and maintain measurement accuracy. The stainless steel inner vessel and other components are corrosion-resistant and easy to clean with standard laboratory proceduressimply remove the inner vessel and wash with appropriate cleaning agents before rinsing and drying thoroughly.

Q: Where can this calorimeter be effectively used?

A: This calorimeter is suitable for laboratories, research institutions, and educational environments. Its robust build and compliance with IS: 1350 Part II standards make it ideal for reliable heat of combustion measurements in both academic and industrial settings across India.

Q: What components are included in the boxed package?

A: The package contains the jacketed calorimeter with stainless steel inner vessel, aluminum outer jacket, precision thermometer, stirrer, pressure release lid, and an operating manual. Molded inserts secure all parts during transport.

Q: How does the device ensure measurement accuracy?

A: Accuracy is ensured by the thermometer, which measures temperature changes in precise 0.1C increments, and by the heat-insulating structure that minimizes external thermal influence. Additionally, compliance with IS: 1350 Part II standards validates its reliable performance for calorimetric analysis.

Q: What power options are available for this calorimeter?

A: The calorimeter supports both manual and electric operation. It is compatible with a 220 V power supply at 50 Hz frequency, offering flexibility for different laboratory setups.
