Abstract
The article discusses the express method proposed by the authors for experimental measurement of the mass burnout rate of liquid combustible substances. Describes the experiments carried out with various liquids, which impregnated products made of porous heat-resistant material in the form of spheres or flat cylindrical "tablets" of different diameters. These products were placed on digital scales and set on fire. A video camera connected to a computer recorded the readings of the scales and simultaneously monitored the combustion process, fixing the value of the current time t. When processing the video file, the dependence of the mass of the liquid burning on the sample on time M = f(t) was plotted. On this graph, a linear section was allocated to measure the mass loss rate, and the specific mass burnout rate of the liquid ṁ was calculated from it. The results were compared with data obtained by other researchers in experiments using various methods for determining ṁ: in particular, with the methods of "stationary sphere", "suspended drop", burnout in a tubular burner, and also from a flat free surface.
