You can input values between 0 and 20,000 Joules for „External energy 2“. You can also select specific types of combustion aids from the list. In such cases you must enter the weight of this combustion aid so that the external energy can be calculated. -
Page 30: Starting The Measurement
After the preparation for measurement, a mes- sage appears requiring secure closure of the de- composition vessel, despite there being no de- composition vessel hung in the calorimeter cover. You should acknowledge the message when you have hung the decomposition vessel in the calori- meter cover. - Page 31 The screen switches to the „Device“ tab. You can trace the progress of the measurement both in this tab and also in the „Graphics“ tab. In the area above the record, progress bars for the individual phases of the measurement are shown. Once the measurement has been correctly com- pleted the calculated calorific value and the cal- culated thermal capacity also appear here.
