ASTM D240 - IP 12 - Heat of Combustion of Liquid Hydrocarbon Fuels by Bomb Calorimeter. This test method covers the determination of the heat of combustion of liquid hydrocarbon fuels ranging in volatility from light distillates to residual fuels.
ASTM D4809 - ASTM D2382 (obs.) - Heat of Combustion of Liquid Hydrocarbon Fuels by Bomb Calorimeter (Precision Method). This test method covers the determination of the heat of combustion of hydrocarbon fuels. It is designed specifically for use with aviation turbine fuels when the permissible difference between duplicate determinations is 0.2 %. It can be used for a wide range of volatile and nonvolatile materials where slightly more significant differences in precision can be tolerated.
ASTM D5865 - ASTM D3286 (obs.)—Standard Test Method for Gross Calorific Value of Coal and Coke. This test method pertains to determining the gross calorific value of coal and coke using an adiabatic bomb calorimeter.
ISO 1716 - Reaction to Fire Test for Building Products. This method covers the determination of the heat of combustion at constant volume in a bomb calorimeter.
