The scale on the fuse wire card can be used to obtain this value directly. 11.
6200 Calorimeter Operating Instruction Manual 5 Samples and Sample Particle Size and Moisture Holders Content. Solid samples burn best in an oxygen bomb when reduced to 60 mesh, or smaller, and compressed into a pellet with a 2811 Parr Pellet Press. Large particles may not burn completely and small particles are easily swept out of the capsule by turbulent gases during rapid combustion. Note: Particle size is important because it influences the reaction rate.
6200 Calorimeter Operating Instruction Manual 5 Non-volatile samples to be tested in Parr oxygen bombs are weighed and burned in shallow capsules measuring approximately 1" diameter and 7/16" deep. These are available in stainless steel, fused silica and platinum alloyed with 3-1/2% rhodium. Stainless steel capsules (43AS) are furnished with each calorimeter. When combusting samples that contain metal particles such as aluminum or magnesium, the non-metallic (fused silica) 43A3 Capsule is required.
6200 Calorimeter Operating Instruction Manual 5 Corrosive The 1108 Oxygen Bomb is made Samples of a corrosion resistant alloy designed to withstand the corrosive mixture of sulfuric and nitric acids produced in normal fuel testing operations. Samples containing chlorine and particular samples containing more than 20 mg of chlorine samples with high sulfur contents will greatly accelerate corrosion of the bomb.
6200 Calorimeter Operating Instruction Manual 5 Use the following procedure when filling and handling any of these tape-sealed sample holders: • Weigh the empty cup or capsule; then cover the top with tape, trim with a knife and press the trimmed edge firmly against the metal rim. Also cut and attach a small flag to the disc (see Figure 5-7). • Puncture the tape at a point below the flag, then re-weigh the empty cup with its tape cover.

6200 Calorimeter Operating Instruction Manual APPENDIX B CALCULATIONS Calculating the Heat of Combustion The 6200 Calorimeter will automatically make all of the calculations necessary to produce a gross heat of combustion for the sample. However, it is important that the user understand these calculations to ensure the instrument is set up so the calculations match the procedures and the units are consistent throughout the process.
6200 Calorimeter Operating Instruction Manual APPENDIX B Nitric Acid Correction. In the high pressure oxygen environment within the oxygen bomb, nitrogen that was present as part of the air trapped in the bomb is burned to nitric oxide which combines with water vapor to form nitric acid. All of this heat is artificial since it is not a result of the sample burning. The nitric acid correction removes this excess heat from the calculation. Thermochemical Corrections Sulfur Correction.
00 Calorimeter Operating Instruction Manual APPENDIX B Current ASTM, ISO, and British Standard Methods differ on their treatment of the nitric and sulfuric acid thermochemical corrections. ASTM Methods call for titrating the bomb washings to determine the total acid present. This is assumed to be all nitric acid with a heat of combustion of -14.1 Kcal per mole. The amount of sulfur is then determined and converted to equivalents of sulfuric acid.
6200 Calorimeter Operating Instruction Manual APPENDIX B Acid and Sulfur Corrections • • • • • • • • • • Total acid is the amount of base required to titrate the bomb washings (milliliters). Nitric acid is that portion of the total acid in the bomb washings that result when the nitrogen in the air that is trapped in the bomb is burned at high pressure.
6200 Calorimeter Operating Instruction Manual APPENDIX B Users may find it convenient to enter a fixed value for the acid correction and avoid the need to determine this correction for each test. Use of a fixed value for the acid correction is highly recommended. Fixed acid corrections can be entered when Fixed Acid - Thermochemical Corrections, is set to ON. A correction of 10 calories is a good number for the fixed nitric acid value.
6200 Calorimeter Operating Instruction Manual APPENDIX B In the ASTM treatment, the correction for acid formation assumes that all the acid titrated is nitric acid. Obviously, if sulfur is present in the sample, which in turn produces sulfuric acid, part of the correction for the sulfuric acid formed is already included in the ASTM nitric acid correction (e1). This is adjusted by a separate computation based upon the sulfur content of the sample. An additional correction of 1.
6200 Calorimeter Operating Instruction Manual APPENDIX B It is sometimes necessary to add a spiking material to samples which are very small, have a low heat of combustion, or have a high moisture content to add sufficient heat to drive the combustion to completion. Benzoic acid is an excellent material for spiking for all of the same reasons it is a good standard material. White oil is also an excellent material, particularly for liquid samples.

6200 Calorimeter Operating Instruction Manual STANDARDIZATION Standardizing the The Energy Equivalent Factor. Calorimeter The term “standardization”, as used here, denotes the operation of the calorimeter on a standard sample from which the energy equivalent or effective heat capacity of the system can be determined. The energy equivalent, W or EE of the calorimeter, is the energy required to raise the temperature one degree, usually expressed as calories per degree Celsius.
6200 Calorimeter Operating Instruction Manual APPENDIX C The 6200 Calorimeter includes a provision for calculating and using a mean energy equivalent for each of up to 4 separate bomb and bucket combinations. ASTM procedures recommend that the energy equivalent be determined by averaging ten tests. The 6200 Calorimeter automatically determines and uses up to 10 tests in its memory and will update the EE Value as additional standardizations are run.
6200 Calorimeter Operating Instruction Manual APPENDIX D Printer Port COMMUNICATION INTERFACES RS232C Connections The 6200 Calorimeter is also equipped with an RS232C port for connection to either a 40 or 80 column printer and/or a balance.
