Standard Test Method for Heat of Combustion of Liquid Hydrocarbon Fuels by Bomb Calorimeter

Scope

1.1 This test method covers the determination of the heat of
combustion of liquid hydrocarbon fuels ranging in volatility
from that of light distillates to that of residual fuels.
1.2 Under normal conditions, this test method is directly
applicable to such fuels as gasolines, kerosines, Nos. 1 and 2
fuel oil, Nos. 1-D and 2-D diesel fuel and Nos. 0-GT, 1-GT,
and 2-GT gas turbine fuels.
1.3 This test method is not as repeatable and not as
reproducible as Test Method D4809.
1.4 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as
standard. The values in parentheses are for information only.
1.5 This standard does not purport to address all of the
safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the
responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate
safety and health practices and determine the applicability
of regulatory limitations prior to use. For specific hazard
