ans of determining the calorific capacity ofliquids, latent heats of evaporation, and the heat disengaged in chemicalactions. The principal part is a spherical iron reservoir, A, full of mercury, ofwhich it holds about 50 pounds, and represents, therefore, a volume of morethan half a gallon. On the… … Fig. 407. mented upon. In most cases one muffle and one glass tube are enough ;the two are used when it is desired to compare the quantities of heat pro-duced in two different operations. In a third vertical tubulure, C, there isalso a muffle, which can be used for determining calorific capacities…
