3 Questions
Match the following terms with their respective meanings in the context of the Boy's gas Calorimeter experiment:
GCV (Gross Calorific Value) = Total heat released during combustion, including the heat of vaporization of the water formed NCV (Net Calorific Value) = Heat released during combustion after subtracting the heat of vaporization of the water formed Calorimeter = Device used to measure the heat of combustion of a substance STP (Standard Temperature and Pressure) = A defined set of conditions for measuring gases
Match the following quantities with their respective units as used in the Boy's gas Calorimeter experiment:
Volume of gas burnt = m³ Mass of cooling water = kg Rise in temperature of cooling water = °C Mass of steam condensed = kg
Match the following factors with their respective roles in calculating GCV and NCV of the fuel in the Boy's gas Calorimeter experiment:
Volume of gas burnt = Used to calculate the volume of oxygen required for complete combustion Mass of cooling water = Used to calculate the heat absorbed by the cooling water Rise in temperature of cooling water = Used to calculate the heat absorbed by the cooling water Mass of steam condensed = Used to calculate the heat released during condensation
Test your knowledge of determining Gross Calorific Value (GCV) and Net Calorific Value (NCV) of a fuel based on experimental data from a gas calorimeter experiment.
