Combustion Apparatus consisting of a copper
cylinder (100mm x 75mm diameter), the bottom of which is in the shape of a
shallow re-entrant cone which forms the top of the combustion chamber.
A spiral copper heat exchanger extends upwards
through the cylinder, its outlet normally being connected to a condenser using
a filter pump to draw the products of combustion through the apparatus.
The cylinder is housed in an aluminium outer jacket
(122mm x 100mm diameter), with a drop on cover with apertures to pass the
outlet of the heat exchanger, the wire stirrer and a bored and split rubber
bung, also supplied to accommodate a thermometer.
The outer jacket has 3 legs 37mm long which, when
the calorimeter is standing on the base unit, provide the combustion chamber
space and the sides of which take the form of a circular Perspex shield with
removable door.
