Conclusions

  1. 1.

    The suggested design for a calorimetric apparatus serves, to evaluate quickly with a small error (±3.5%) the specific heat of liquids.

  2. 2.

    This measurement precision can be attained even with a temperature difference between the calorimetric liquid and the jacket attaining 80°C, provided that the equipment comprises a vessel with vacuum-filled walls, a cork dust stopper, an ebonite carrier with a glass tube, etc.

  3. 3.

    It has been established experimentally that the thermal value of the suggested calorimetric equipment remains virtually constant for a calorimetric liquid temperature change from 20 to 95°C.
