Test data are tabulated in a formal
report. This includes a plot of the temperature rise for the combustion
reaction. Typical users of the bomb calorimeter service are scientists,
engineers, and production personnel that require heat of combustion data for
research, process control, and quality assurance. Please contact Kinetica to
discuss your requirements for bomb calorimeter testing and analysis.
