HIGH TEMPERATURE CALORIMETRY: I. A NEW ADIABATIC CALORIMETER

L. D. Armstrong

Open publisher page 10 citations

Abstract

In this paper is described a new calorimeter for the measurement of specific heats at high temperatures, by the adiabatic method. The advantage is that the specific heat at a definite temperature can be determined by a measurement taken over a small temperature interval, with a precision of 1% or better, throughout the range 400 °C. to 800 °C. This permits a study of specific heat anomalies in this range.
