Determination of the heating value of fuel oil and of the calorific value of olive oil

Product No: P3021701

Principle

The heat of reaction generated during the complete combustion of 1000g of solid or liquid fuel is known as the calorific value H. In the case of complete combustion of nutritional fats, the gross calorific value can also be determined. In order to ensure complete combustion, the reaction takes place under oxygen. The heat generated during the combustion of a specific amount of fuel is absorbed by a glass jacket calorimeter of known heat capacity. The calorific value of the test substance can be calculated from the temperature increase in the calorimeter.

Tasks

Determine the calorific value of heating oil and the gross calorific value of olive oil.

What you can learn about

  • Heat of reaction
