Understanding Calorific Value of Fuels by JAN JERICHO MENTOY is a document available to read on EtoBox.
There are two types of calorific values for liquid fuels: high and low. The high calorific value is determined when the water produced during combustion is condensed, releasing latent heat. The low calorific value accounts for water vapor escaping without condensing. A bomb calorimeter can be used to directly measure the calorific value of a fuel sample through controlled combustion in a sealed chamber. It works by measuring the temperature increase of the surrounding water, which is used to calculate the h
