Abstract:
Calorimetric studies and safety tests on lithion-ion cells and post-lithium cells Open Access Government interviews Dr Carlos Ziebert, of the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT), who explores the thermal and safety properties of batteries across calorimetric studies. The group batteries – calorimetry and safety – focus on calorimetric studies and safety tests on lithium-ion cells and post-lithium cells. Depending on the cell size and application, different types of calorimeters are used in Europe's largest Battery Calorimeter Laboratory, established in 2011. It provides seven Accelerating Rate Calorimeters (ARCs) from Thermal Hazard Technology allowing the evaluation of thermodynamic, thermal and safety data for Lithium-ion and post-Li cells on material, cell, and pack levels for both normal and abuse conditions (thermal, electrical, mechanical). The lab also includes glove boxes for cell assembly and disassembly, many temperature chambers, a thermal camera, and cyclers with several hundred channels. It contains extremely sensitive 3D Calvet calorimeters, providing thermodynamic parameters and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry systems from Perkin-Elmer for venting gas analysis.

Abstract:
Particle Flow Algorithms (PFAs) attempt to measure each particle in a hadronic jet individually, using the detector subsystem that provides the best energy/momentum resolution. Calorimeters that can exploit the power of PFAs emphasize spatial granularity over single particle energy resolution. In this context, the CALICE Collaboration developed the Digital Hadron Calorimeter (DHCAL). The DHCAL uses Resistive Plate Chambers (RPCs) as active media and is read out with 1 × 1 cm2 pads and digital (1-bit) resolution. In order to obtain a unique dataset of electromagnetic and hadronic interactions with unprecedented spatial resolution, the DHCAL went through a broad test beam program. In addition to conventional calorimetry, the DHCAL offers detailed measurements of event shapes, rigorous tests of simulation models and various analytical tools to improve calorimetric performance. Here we report on the results from the analysis of DHCAL data and comparisons with the Monte Carlo simulations.

Abstract:
We summarize the fundamental aspects of dual-readout calorimetry, a calorimetric technique able to overcome the non-compensation problem by means of two independent scintillation and Cherenkov light signals detection. The expected ultimate energy resolution for single-hadron detection, together with the excellent particle identification capability, makes a dual-readout fiber calorimeter one of the most promising options for future leptonic colliders. In this paper, we include the main benefits of a new silicon photomultiplier-based readout system that allows to sample showers with an unprecedented spatial resolution.

This paper gives a short review of sensors dedicated to measuring nuclear heating rate inside fission reactors in France and USA and especially inside Material Testing Reactors. These sensors correspond to heat flow calorimeters composed of a single calorimetric cell or of two calorimetric cells at least with a reference cell to obtain a differential calorimeter. The aim of this paper is to present the common running principle of these sensors and their own special characteristics through their design, calibration methods, and in-pile measurement techniques, and to describe multi-sensor probes including calorimeters.

Abstract:
Noble liquid calorimeters have been successfully used in particle physics experiments for decades. The project presented in this article is that of a new noble liquid calorimeter concept, where a novel design allows us to fulfil the stringent requirements on calorimetry of the physics programme of the electron-positron Future Circular Collider at CERN. High granularity is achieved through the design of specific readout electrodes and high-density cryostat feedthroughs. Excellent performance can be reached through new very light cryostat design and low electronics noise. Preliminary promising performance is achieved in simulations, and ideas for further R&D opportunities are discussed.

Abstract:
Dual-readout calorimetry is a calorimetric technique able to overcome the noncompensation limit by simultaneously detecting scintillation and Cherenkov light. Scintillating photons provide a signal related to the energy deposition in the calorimeter by all ionising particles while Cherenkov photons provide a signal almost exclusively related to the electromagnetic component in the hadronic shower. Fluctuations among the electromagnetic and non-electromagnetic component of hadronic induced showers represent the major limit to reach resolutions needed in experiments at future leptonic colliders. In a dual-readout calorimeter, by looking at the two independent signals, it is possible to measure, event by event, the electromagnetic fraction and to correctly reconstruct the primary hadron energy. Applications of the dual-readout method in fiber-sampling calorimetry have been shown to be able to provide single hadron detection with an energy resolution around [Formula: see text], electromagnetic resolution around [Formula: see text], excellent particle identification capability, resulting in one of the most promising option for future leptonic colliders. Status-of-art of the dual-readout calorimetry, as well as, perspective in the developments toward scalable solution for [Formula: see text] detectors are presented in this paper. This includes, study on the material choice, SiPM readout of the fibers, possible segmentation of the fibers to enhance particle ID capability.

Full text
Abstract:
Electromagnetic calorimetry in high-radiation environments, e.g., forward regions of lepton and hadron collider detectors, is quite challenging. Although total absorption crystal calorimeters have superior performance as electromagnetic calorimeters, the availability and the cost of the radiation-hard crystals are the limiting factors as radiation-tolerant implementations. Sampling calorimeters utilizing silicon sensors as the active media are also favorable in terms of performance but are challenged by high-radiation environments. In order to provide a solution for such implementations, we developed a radiation-hard, fast and cost-effective technique, secondary emission calorimetry, and tested prototype secondary emission sensors in test beams. In a secondary emission detector module, secondary emission electrons are generated from a cathode when charged hadron or electromagnetic shower particles penetrate the secondary emission sampling module placed between absorber materials. The generated secondary emission electrons are then multiplied in a similar way as the photoelectrons in photomultiplier tubes. Here, we report on the principles of secondary emission calorimetry and the results from the beam tests performed at Fermilab Test Beam Facility as well as the Monte Carlo simulations of projected, large-scale secondary emission electromagnetic calorimeters.

Abstract:
The HIBEAM/NNBAR experiment is a free-neutron search for n → sterile n and n → n ¯ oscillations planned to be installed at the European Spallation Source under construction in Lund, Sweden. A key component in the experiment is the detector to identify n – n ¯ annihilation events, which will produce on average four pions with a final state invariant mass of two nucleons, around 1.9 GeV. The beamline and experiment are shielded from magnetic fields which would suppress n → n ¯ transitions, thus no momentum measurement will be possible. Additionally, calorimetry for particles with kinetic energies below 600 MeV is challenging, as traditional sampling calorimeters used in HEP would suffer from poor shower statistics. A design study is underway to use a novel approach of a hadronic range measurement in multiple plastic scintillator layers, followed by EM calorimetery with lead glass. A prototype calorimeter system is being built, and will eventually be installed at an ESS test beam line for in situ neutron background studies.

Resumo: Esse trabalho consiste na utilização de um calorímetro isoperibólico em laboratório didático de química no nível superior, para se estudar aspectos mais amplos de alguns processos, que não os energéticos. Como se sabe, o calorímetro é o principal instrumento da primeira lei da termodinâmica e, como tal, presta-se, normalmente, para se obter a variação de energia de fenômenos físicos e químicos como entalpias de dissolução, combustão, neutralização, etc. Nesse projeto, utilizou-se esse instrumento em estudos da cinética de reações químicas, determinação de entalpias de vaporização, entalpias de reações eletroquímicas e estudos de reações oscilantes. O calorímetro utilizado é do tipo isoperibólico e já se encontra em operação no laboratório de Físico-Química do Instituto de Química da Unicamp há um longo tempo. Estudou-se a cinética da reação entre MnO4 e C2O4 em meio ácido, sendo observado que a reação e autocatalisada por Mn. O valor da constante cinética k = 10,4 L mol s determinado por essa técnica mostrou-se concordante com o valor obtido por espectrofotometria k =10,6 L mol s. Também foi estudada a cinética da reação de decomposição de H2O2 por I e o resultado mostrou uma dependência de primeira ordem em relação ao H2O2 e um valor de constante de velocidade k = 6,64 10 s concordante com o da literatura, obtido por outra técnica. Num outro estudo, determinou-se a entalpia da reação eletroquímica de uma solução aquosa de KI, obtendo-se o valor de DH = 247 kJ mol, valor esse, concordante com o da literatura que e de 245 kJ mol. Também foi realizada a reação eletroquímica de uma solução aquosa de sulfato de cobre utilizando-se eletrodos de cobre; os resultados permitiram evidenciar a validade de lei de Hess. Outro experimento observado foi o de reações oscilantes do tipo Belousov-Zhabotinsky. O estudo mostrou ser possivel explorar essa reação de uma forma didática bastante interessante. No entanto, algumas etapas da reação mostraram resultados de difícil acesso e pouca reprodutibilidade. Também foi explorado nesse projeto o uso da primeira lei (calorimetria) e da segunda lei (medidas de pressão de vapor) na determinação da entalpia de vaporização de alguns líquidos como água e etanol. Os resultados mostram que a utilização concomitante dessas duas técnicas leva a resultados concordantes entre si, que permitem ao aluno observar a consistência interna entre a primeira e a segunda lei da termodinâmica
Abstract: This work consists of utilizing an isoperibol calorimeter in educational laboratories of the chemistry college undergraduate course to study unusual aspects of some processes, in addiction to the energetic. As you know, the calorimeter is the main instrument of the first thermodynamic law and, normally, is used to obtain the variation of energy in physical and chemical phenomenon, such as enthalpies of dissolution, combustion, neutralization and other reactions. In this project, the calorimeter was used to study the kinetics of chemical reactions, determining the enthalpies of vaporization, the enthalpies of electrochemical reactions and oscillatory reactions. The instrument used is an isoperibol calorimeter and it has already been in use in the Physical-Chemistry Laboratory of the Unicamp Chemistry Institute for a long time. The study of the kinetic of reactions between MnO4 and C2O4 inside an acid environment showed that the reaction is autocatalyzed by Mn. Through this technique, it was possible to determinate that k = 10,4 L mol s and this value is almost the same obtained by spectrophotometry k = 10,6 L mol s. The kinetic of a decomposition reaction was studied also, and the result showed a dependency of the first order in relation to H2O2 and a value of velocity's constant k = 6,64 10 s concordant with the literature that was obtained through another technique. In another study, the enthalpy of an electrochemical reaction of a wet solution of KI was determinate in DH = 247 kJ mol, and this is concordant with the literature, DH = 245 kJ mol. Another reaction studied was the electrochemical reaction of a wet solution of copper sulfate using copper electrodes, and the results showed evidence, giving validity to the Hess law. Another experiment studied oscillatory reactions of the Belousov-Zhabotinsky type and showed it possible to explore this reaction in a very interesting educational way. In general, some reaction Ls steps showed results of hard access and low reproduction. Also studied in this project was the use of the first law (calorimetry) and the second law (measures of vapor pressure) in determining the vaporization enthalpy of some liquids as water and ethanol. The results show that the use of these two techniques, at the same time, lead to concordant results that permit the student to observe the relation between the first and the second thermodynamic laws

Resumo: Nos últimos anos tem aumentado o interesse em combustíveis oriundos de fontes renováveis como é o caso do biodiesel. Tendo em vista que os ácidos graxos são componentes de óleos e gorduras, usados para a produção do biodiesel em reações de transesterificação, e cujas propriedades ainda são bastante escassas na literatura, o objetivo do presente trabalho foi o de contribuir com dados experimentais de capacidade calorífica (cp) de ácidos graxos, constituintes de óleos e gorduras. Tais dados são necessários para os balanços de energia e para o projeto de equipamentos visando a purificação de óleos, bem como para o cálculo de reações químicas. A análise térmica diferencial é uma técnica dinâmica que vem sendo muito utilizada na determinação de dados térmicos, como capacidade calorífica, temperaturas de mudanças de estado, determinação da pureza de substâncias, entre outras. O cp é a medida da quantidade de energia necessária por unidade de massa (ou mol) de uma substância para elevar sua temperatura em um grau. Neste trabalho foram determinados os dados de cp dos seguintes ácidos graxos em fase líquida e pressão ambiente: ácido caprílico (C8:0), ácido cáprico (C10:0), ácido láurico (C12:0), ácido mirístico (C14:0), ácido palmítico (C16:0), ácido esteárico (C18:0), ácido oléico (C18:1) e ácido linoléico (C18:2). Para determinar a capacidade calorífica dos ácidos graxos, foi utilizado o Calorímetro Exploratório Diferencial - DSC da TA Instruments. Os dados experimentais foram processados pelo método do software Thermal Specialty Library versão 2.2 e pelo método da Amplitude. Os resultados mostraram que a capacidade calorífica aumenta com a temperatura e com o tamanho da cadeia carbônica. Entre os métodos avaliados não houve diferença entre os resultados obtidos. Os dados experimentais foram comparados com dados obtidos pelo método de contribuição de grupos e os desvios relativos chegaram a 15 %. O intervalo de temperatura de exploração foi de 308 K (35 ºC) a 573 K (300 ºC)
Abstract: In recent years the interest in renewable sources of fuels such as biodiesel has been increasing. Considering that fatty acids are components of fats and oils, used in the production of biodiesel in the transesterification reactions, and whose properties are still quite scarce in the literature, the purpose of this study was to contribute with experimental data of heat capacity (cp) of fatty acid constituents of oils and fats. Such data are needed for energy balances, for the design of equipment aimed at purification of oils and also for the calculation of chemical reactions. Differential thermal analysis is a dynamic technique that has been widely used in the determination of thermal data such as heat capacity, purity determination, phase change temperatures and others. The cp is the amount of energy required per unit mass (or mole) of a substance to raise its temperature by one degree. The cp were determined, in liquid phase and at atmospheric pressure, of the following fatty acids: caprylic acid (C8:0), capric acid (C10:0), lauric acid (C12:0), myristic acid (C14:0), palmitic acid (C16:0), stearic acid (C18:0), oleic acid (C18:1) and linoleic acid (C18:2). To determine the heat capacities of the fatty acids, a Differential Scanning Calorimeter - DSC, of TA Instruments, was used. The experimental data were processed using the Thermal Specialty Library (version 2.2) software and the method of vertical displacement. The results showed that the heat capacity increased with temperature and with the length of the alkyl chains. A comparison of the two methods showed no difference between the resulting information, and when the data from the experiments were compared with the data obtained from the group contribution method, there was a relative deviation of 15%. The working temperature range was from 308 K (35 ºC) to 573 K (300 ºC)

Isothermal titration calorimetry is a technique used to measure the enthalpy change associated with a molecular binding interaction. From these data, the binding constant for the reaction can be determined. In the scope of a larger project to design a high sensitivity instrument for collecting such data, the current methods in isothermal titration calorimetry were investigated. Further calorimetric experience was acquired by designing a large scale calorimetric device. Dilution reactions with dimethyl sulfoxide and water were conducted to measure the excess enthalpy of binding. The inaccuracy of these measurements necessitated the more careful design of an isoperibol calorimeter. This calorimeter was modeled was an arrangement of coupled thermal masses and capacitances in order to fully understand its transient response to a thermal input. Dilution reactions and a neutralization reaction with HCl and NH40H were performed on the system and the results were used to make recommendations for the design of the future high sensitivity device.

Full text
Abstract:
In the experiment E683 at Fermi National Accelerator Lab (FNAL) in Batavia, Illinois, a modular, high-energy sampling calorimeter was the basis of the detector system. In order to monitor each of the 528 modules of the calorimeter, an embedded LED was flashed directly into each of the 528 PMT tubes (which normally pick up the light from the sampling modules of the calorimeter) and their responses were recorded. The purpose of this investigation was to observe, study, and possibly make corrections for any fluctuations in the PMT response to the LED signals. Also, as a check, the PMT data was analyzed to see if any LED fluctuations were correlated with any fluctuations in the calorimeter module data coming from particles produced when targets were exposed to accelerator beam particles. These studies were done using a VAXstation model 4000/60, and the database and graphics components (called 'N-tuples' and `PAW' respectively) of a High Energy Physics math package called 'CERNLIB'. By putting the analyzed data into n-tuple files, many different modelings of the same data could be checked more efficiently. The study found that the LED system was useful for detecting and correcting for signal degradation due to calamp failure and these corrections were put in the E683 analysis package. It was also found that long term LED response signal fluctuations were not completely explained, but that there was no correlation with beam induced calorimeter response signal fluctuations.

Abstract:
MINOS is a long-baseline neutrino oscillation experiment. A neutrino beam is created at the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory in Illinois and fired down through the Earth. Measurements of the energy spectra and composition of the neutrino beam are made both at the source using the Near detector and 735 km away at the Soudan Underground Laboratory in Minnesota using the Far detector. By comparing the spectrum and flavour composition of the neutrino beam between the two detectors neutrino oscillations can be observed. Such a comparison depends on the accuracy of the relative calorimetric energy scale. This thesis details a precise measurement of the calorimetric energy scale of the MINOS Far detector and Calibration detector using stopping muons with a new "track window" technique. These measurements are used to perform the relative calibration between the two detectors. This calibration has been accomplished to 1.7% in data and to significantly better than 2% in the Monte Carlo simulation, thus achieving the MINOS relative calibration target of 2%. A number of cross-checks have been performed to ensure the robustness of the calorimetric energy scale measurements. At the Calibration detector the test-beam energy between run periods is found to be consistent with the detector response to better than 2% after the relative calibration is applied. The muon energy loss in the MINOS detectors determined from Bethe-Bloch predictions, data and Monte Carlo are compared and understood. To estimate the systematic error on the measurement of the neutrino oscillation parameters caused by a relative miscalibration a study is performed. A 2% relative miscalibration is shown to cause a 0.6% bias in the values of Δm2 and sin2(2θ).

Abstract:

The ATLAS experiment -- situated at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) in Geneva -- is on schedule to take its first collision data in 2009. Physics topics include finding the Higgs boson, heavy quark physics, and looking for extensions of the standard model such as supersymmetry. Upon acceptance of an event by the level 1 trigger, data is read out from the liquid argon calorimeters using multi-mode optical fibers. In total, 58 cables were installed, corresponding to 232 12-fiber ribbons or 2784 individual fibers. The cables, about one hundred meters in length, were installed between the main ATLAS cavern and the counting room in the USA15 cavern. Patch cables were spliced onto the ribbons and the fiber attenuation was measured. For 1296 fiber pairs in 54 cables, the average attenuation was 0.69 dB. Only five fibers were found to have losses exceeding 4 dB, resulting in a failure rate of less than 2 per mil. In the ATLAS liquid argon barrel presampler, short circuits consisting of small pieces of dust, metal, etc. can be burned away in situ by discharging a capacitor over the high voltage lines. In a burning campaign in November 2006, seventeen existing short circuits were successfully removed. An investigation on how to implement saturation effects in liquid argon due to high ionization densities resulted into the implementation of the effect in the ATLAS Monte Carlo code, improving agreement with beam test data. The timing structure of hadronic showers was investigated using a Geant4 Monte Carlo. The expected behavior as described in the literature was reproduced, with the exception that some sets of physics models gave unphysical gamma energies from nuclear neutron capture. An ATLAS Combined Beam Test was conducted in the summer/fall of 2004 in the CERN H8 area, containing a whole slice of the ATLAS detectors in the central barrel region. The controlled single-particle environment allows the validation of Monte Carlo code and calibration. A method for calibrating the response of a segmented calorimeter to hadrons was developed. The ansatz is that information on longitudinal shower fluctuations gained from a principal component analysis of the layer energy depositions can improve energy resolution by correcting for hadronic invisible energy and dead material losses: projections along the eigenvectors of the correlation matrix are used as input for the calibration. The technique was used to reconstruct the energy of pions impinging on the ATLAS calorimeters during the 2004 Combined Beam Test. Simulated Monte Carlo events were used to derive corrections for invisible energy lost in nuclear reactions and in dead material in front and in between the calorimeters.  For pion beams with energies between 20 and 180 GeV, the particle energy was reconstructed within 3% and the resolution was improved by about 20%. As a comparison, a simple iterative scheme with a single e/π factor and dead material corrections was devised, giving similar performance.

Abstract:
Calorimeter has been an essential element of High Energy Physics Experiment for decades. As beam energies of hadron colliders reached the multi-TeV range, hermeticity of the calorimetric system became a high priority issue. Additional requirements arose from increased luminosity. The Forward Calorimeter (covering rapidity η >3) must to provide high quality measurements of hadronic jets (energy and position) at extremely high rate and at the same time withstand a harsh radiation environment. The Liquid Argon Tube Forward Calorimeter was developed at the University of Arizona to fulfill those requirements. Prototypes of the electromagnetic section (15X₀, later 25X₀) were tested at BNL and CERN secondary beams in 1993 and 1995. Data acquired in those tests allowed us to study such vital parameters of the calorimeter as response uniformity, energy and position resolution. An energy range from 2 GeV to 200 GeV and angles from 0.6° to 5.6° were covered. Observed results (together with extensive Monte-Carlo simulation studies of the Forward Region) allowed the Liquid Argon Tube Calorimeter to be chosen among several competing designs as the Baseline for the Forward Calorimeter of the ATLAS multi-purpose detector at the LHC (CERN).

Abstract:
Previous studies of bridge-based micro calorimeters have shown that these devices can measure heat capacity and melting point of ultra thin films with pulse scan calorimetry. The bridge-based micro calorimeters consist of a sample region and several beams that connecting the sample region with silicon substrate. Both the sample region and the beams are suspending on the silicon substrate for thermal isolation. The temperature distribution of the micro calorimeter during a heating pulse depends on the joule-heating of the heating resistor, the heat absorption and heat conduct of the bridge. The heat transfer through the beams during a pulse scan measurement is complex because there is heat generation on some beams and the temperature distribution along the beams is not uniform. Using three dimensional finite element analyses (FEA), the thermal-electrical simulations of the heat transfer in the bridge-based micro calorimeters have been performed. The heat consumption and temperature distribution at steady state analyses, the temperature response of the bridge and the heat generation of the heater at transient analyses have been calculated for the bridge-based micro calorimeter with different sample thermal conductivities and heat capacities. The simulation results indicate that for the bridge-based microcalorimeter using pulse calorimetry, when the heat capacity of the sample film is close to or larger than the heat capacity of an empty calorimeter, the differential method of getting the sample heat capacity from the difference between a micro calorimeter with and without the sample is no longer suitable because the heat transfer and temperature distributions of the two calorimeters are no longer comparable to each other.

Abstract:
Thermal properties of thin films may differ from the bulk value due to the differences in microstructure, such as the grain size, impurities and defects. Heat capacity is one of the thermophysical properties and it is measured by calorimetry. However, traditional calorimeters can’t measure heat capacity of thin films which are quasi-2D and has small heat capacity. Recently, micro calorimeters with suspending membrane structure have been developed to measure the heat capacity of ultra thin films with thickness of sub-micrometer to nanometer scale. Efforts are focused on reducing heat capacitance of the addenda and minimizing the thermal link so as to permit an adiabatic measurement of the heat capacity of thin film. In this paper, a micro pulse calorimeter was developed and heat capacities of the copper thin films were measured by the micro pulse calorimetry. The heating rate of the micro calorimeter is up to 200K/ms with heating power of 4.5mW, and the heat capacity of the calorimeter is about 23.4nJ/K at 300K. Heat capacities of polycrystalline copper thin films with thickness from 20nm to 340nm were measured in the temperature range from 300K to 420K in vacuum of 1mPa. In order to extract the specific heat of the Cu films, mass of the films was calculated with volume and density of the sample film. The specific heat of the Cu films was compared with the literature values of bulk Cu. The specific heat of the 340nm Cu film is close to the literature data of bulk Cu. For the thinner films, enhanced specific heat was observed, and the data shows that the specific heat increases with the decreasing of crystalline size and film thickness.

Abstract:
A nanoscale calorimeter design based on temperature induced changes in a surface plasmon based photonics effect has the potential to decrease the mass of experimental compounds consumed and to increase the throughput of experiments investigating drug development. This calorimeter is based on a demonstrated surface plasmon biosensor in which index of refraction changes as small as 10−5 % caused by biochemical reactions on the sensor surface are detected. To achieve this sensitivity require that the device’s temperature be held constant to within ± 0.001 K. In the biosensor the temperature was held constant to measure the concentration changes. For the calorimeter the concentration is held constant and temperature changes are monitored. In the calorimeter design the nanohole array sensor will be used as a sensitive thermometer that will be used to determine the enthalpy of binding, equilibrium binding constant and entropy changes of biochemical reactions. The numerical analysis described in this work demonstrates that nanoscale calorimetry is possible. The simulations demonstrate that two designs can produce temperature rises of 5.5 and 40 C, respectively well above the (10−3) C resolution of the sensors. These results were obtained using less than three orders of magnitude less reactants than is currently being used in calorimetry studies which is a significant advance of this technology.
