Abstract
An adiabatic calorimeter of the scanning ratio type is described, which combines easy operation with high precision. Scanning velocities from less than 1 mu K s-1 up to 0.1K s-1 can be achieved, and temperatures between 273K and 773K are accessible. The capability of the apparatus is demonstrated by measuring the heat capacity of a mixture of triethylamine and water of critical composition near the critical temperature.
