Bomb calorimeter is used to determine the (where, GCV - Gross Calorific Value. NCV - Net Calorific Value.) ?
Correct answer: B. GCV at constant volume
- A. GCV at constant pressure
- B. GCV at constant volume
- C. NCV at constant pressure
- D. NCV at constant volume
Explanation
A bomb calorimeter operates at constant volume, and the heat measured corresponds to the gross calorific value because the water formed during combustion is condensed. Net calorific value excludes this latent heat of condensation.
