Abstract

Combustion heat is a very important combustion characteristic of pyrotechnics, and there are lots of methods use combustion heat to evaluate the accidental severity of pyrotechnic safety. In the meantime, combustion heat has profound guiding significance for compound design and safe handling of pyrotechnics. This article utilizes oxygen bomb calorimeter to determine the combustion heat of certain kinds of pyrotechnics, using Hess Law to derive combustion reaction of pyrotechnics that may occur, and analyzing the reasons of differences between the theoretical value with the experimental value.
