EUROLAB, with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, provides precise and fast testing services within the scope of GOST 147 testing. GOST 147 is a standard that specifies methods for determining the gross calorific value and calculating the net calorific value of solid mineral fuels.
Gross calorific value is the total amount of heat produced when a fuel is completely burned in a bomb calorimeter under controlled conditions. The net calorific value is the gross calorific value minus the heat of evaporation of the water produced during combustion. Net calorific value is a more useful parameter for estimating the heating value and energy content of solid fuels.
The standard outlines procedures for sample preparation, measurement of gross calorific value, and calculation of net calorific value. Sample preparation procedures include drying and homogenizing the sample to remove moisture and ensure consistency. The gross calorific value is determined using a bomb calorimeter, which measures the heat produced by burning a known amount of the sample in a controlled environment. The net calorific value is calculated by subtracting the heat of evaporation of the water formed during combustion from the gross calorific value.
GOST 147 is important for the solid fuel industry as it provides a standardized approach to measuring the calorific value of solid mineral fuels. Accurate measurement of calorific value is critical for quality control and for predicting the energy content and combustion characteristics of solid fuels. The standard helps ensure consistency and accuracy in calorific value measurement, which can help reduce variability in fuel quality and reduce the environmental impacts associated with fuel combustion.
