Automated, small sample-size adiabatic calorimeter.
Abstract
An automated adiabatic calorimeter is described with an internal vol. of 5 cm3, operable at
30-380 K. One of the main advantages of this calorimeter over others in use is the shorter down time
during sample changes, due to interchangeable sample vessels that fit into the heater/thermometer
assembly. This calorimeter was tested by measuring the heat capacity of benzoic acid, and the
results agreed with the literature values to within 0.5%.
