Calorimeter systems.


Two intracooler-ready Pyris 6 differential scanning calorimeter calorimeter: see calorimetry.
calorimeter

Device for measuring heat produced during a mechanical, electrical, or chemical reaction and for calculating the heat capacity of materials.
 (DSC (1) (Digital Signal Controller) A microcontroller and DSP combined on the same chip. It adds the interrupt-driven capabilities normally associated with a microcontroller to a DSP, which typically functions as a continuous process. See microcontroller and DSP. ) systems and a two-stage intracooler have been introduced by the company. The addition of an intracooler expands the DSC operating range from -70 [degrees] C to 450 [degrees] C without requiting an expensive liquid nitrogen Noun 1. liquid nitrogen - nitrogen in a liquid state
atomic number 7, N, nitrogen - a common nonmetallic element that is normally a colorless odorless tasteless inert diatomic gas; constitutes 78 percent of the atmosphere by volume; a constituent of all living
 cooling system cooling system: see air conditioning; internal-combustion engine; refrigeration.
cooling system

Apparatus used to keep the temperature of a structure or device from exceeding limits imposed by needs of safety and efficiency.
. The intracooler systems are said to simplify setup and reduce operating costs. They are said to be ideal for performing subambient applications, including thermoplastics and elastomers with transitions above -70 [degrees] C. (PerkinElmer Instruments)
