Standard Test Method for Measurement of Heat of Hydration of Hydraulic Cementitious Materials Using Isothermal Conduction Calorimetry

SIGNIFICANCE AND USE
5.1 This method is suitable for determining the total heat of hydration of hydraulic cement at constant temperature at ages up to 7 days to confirm specification compliance. It gives test results equivalent to Test Method C186 up to 7 days of age (1).3  
5.2 This method compliments Practice C1679 by providing details of calorimeter equipment, calibration, and operation. Practice C1679 emphasizes interpretation significant events in cement hydration by analysis of time dependent patterns of heat flow, but does not provide the level of detail necessary to give precision test results at specific test ages required for specification compliance.
SCOPE
1.1 This test method specifies the apparatus and procedure for determining total heat of hydration of hydraulic cementitious materials at test ages up to 7 days by isothermal conduction calorimetry.  
1.2 This test method also outputs data on rate of heat of hydration versus time that is useful for other analytical purposes, as covered in Practice C1679.  
1.3 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. No other units of measurement are included in this standard.  
1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.

For this application, sensitivity is taken as ten times the random noise (standard deviation) in the baseline signal.
3.1.6 thermal mass, n—the amount of thermal energy that can be stored by a material (J/K).
3.1.6.1 Discussion—
The thermal mass of a given material is calculated by multiplying the mass by the specific heat capacity of the material. For the
purpose of calculating the thermal mass used in this standard, the following specific heat capacities can be used: The specific heat
capacity of a typical unhydrated portland cement and water is 0.75 and 4.18 J/(g·K), respectively. Thus a mixture of A g of cement
and B g of water has a thermal mass of (0.75 × A + 4.18 × B) J/K. The specific heat capacity of typical quartz and limestone is
0.75 and 0.84 J ⁄(g·K), respectively. The specific heat capacity of most amorphous supplementary cementitious material, such as
