Abstract
The classification proposed here aims at being simple, easy to apply (both for actual and hypothetical calorimeters) and having the minimum overlaps. It starts with the widely accepted heat exchange considerations, paying special attention to the dynamic behaviour of calorimeters. Nevertheless, it was found useful, for the sake of simplicity and sharpness of definition, to base the operational classification on a criterion of temperature control which leads to a clear-cut distinction between “adiabatic”, “ordinary” (main class: isoperibol) and “true or extended isothermal” (main classes: phase change, power compensation, heat-flow or conduction) calorimeters. About 100 of them are quoted here.
