A new flow calorimeter Ibr measuring isobaric enthalphy increme.lt and JouleThomson efl~:ct was built :rod tested during the period 1987-1993. The calorirneter has several features that reduce the heat leakage better than previous designs: this includes thermal shields cooled by propane, a heat sink, and superinsulation on all piping. The temperature and pressure range covered by the calorimeter is 133 to 343 K and 0.17 to 14 MPa. Measurements on a mixture of 68.32'!/,, methane and 31.68 % propane are presented. The enthalpy increment measurements have an average standard uncertainty of 0.08 kJ-kg ~, or 0.22% of the enthalpy increment.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
