LOWER HEATING VALUE

Specialty Definition: LOWER HEATING VALUE

DomainDefinition

Food & Agriculture

Net heat of combustion(Hunt, Energy dict. ). Source: European Union. (references)

Public Administration

The number of heat units measured as being liberated when unit mass of fuel is burned in oxygen saturated with water vapour in a bomb under standardised conditions, the residual materials being taken as gaseous oxygen, carbon dioxide, sulphur dioxide and nitrogen, water as water vapour and ash. The standardised conditions are defined in ISO-R-1928-71. The international reference temperature is 25°C(1). Source: European Union. (references)
 The amount of heat liberated by the complete combustion, under specified conditions, of unit volume of a gas, the water produced by the combustion of the gas being assumed to remain as a vapour, the other products of combustion being referred to the standardised test conditions as applied in different countries. Hencethe net calorific value is the gross calorific value less the latent heat of evaporation of the water that formed during combustion of the fuel(2). Source: European Union. (references)

Weather

Quantity of heat liberated by the complete combustion of a unit volume or weight of a fuel assuming that the produced water remains as a vapor and the heat of the vapor is not recovered; also known as net calorific value. See higher heating value. (references)
