Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of calorimetric device, in particular to a multi-sample cell hanging and high-temperature-resistant fuse electrode device. BACKGROUND

[0002] Heat capacity is the sum of the energy contribution of the lattice, electrons and other forms of motion inside the material system, which is a basic thermophysical parameter of the material. Through the accurate determination of heat capacity, the basic thermodynamic data such as enthalpy, entropy, Gibbs free energy of the material can be obtained, and then the structure and phase transition of the material can be understood. In addition, it is also a method to obtain the lattice vibration of the microstructure of the material, the electronic energy level transition, and to understand the superconducting phenomenon, the mechanism of magnetic action, and the structural distortion. Therefore, obtaining accurate data of high-temperature heat capacity of the material is of great significance for exploring and designing new materials, optimizing the preparation process of materials, promoting the understanding and development of material science, etc.

[0003] Drop calorimetry is one of the most accurate and reliable methods for determining the heat capacity of a material at high temperatures. However, this method has some drawbacks such as long testing time, high temperature, sample changing difficulty, sample dropping inconvenience, and the need for operators to have certain professional knowledge. These limitations restrict its development and use. Therefore, it is particularly important to develop a drop calorimetry device that is simple to operate, easy to change samples, stable in performance, has a high and wide working temperature range, and high accuracy. One of the most critical aspects is the optimization of the sample cell dropping method and structure to ensure good stability, fast sample dropping, easy sample changing, and long-term repeated use of the fuse electrode in high-temperature environments.

[0004] Currently, the representative high-temperature calorimetric systems in the field of drop calorimetry include ice calorimeter, water calorimeter, and copper block calorimeter. However, the fuse electrode of these drop calorimetric devices can only hang one sample cell at a time. After each experiment, the temperature needs to be lowered and raised again, which is time-consuming and inefficient. Moreover, the repeatability and reliability are poor at high temperatures, which is not conducive to controlling the experimental time in high-temperature environments. Long-term opening of the furnace cover also leads to large heat leakage, making the furnace chamber susceptible to sudden cooling, reducing the accuracy of the instrument. In addition, the maximum temperature of the fuse electrode of these three calorimetric devices does not exceed 1000K, which seriously affects their application. SUMMARY
