Injection Style Measurement Calorimetry – Fast, Accurate Fuel Energy Analysis

Injection Style Measurement Calorimetry is a highly efficient method used to determine the heat content of fuels, typically measured in British Thermal Units (BTU). Unlike traditional methods, this approach works by injecting a small, controlled amount of fuel into a specialized combustion chamber. Once ignited, the fuel burns completely, and the released heat is transferred to a water or air stream. The system then measures the resulting temperature rise to accurately calculate the calorific value of the fuel.  Contact us today!

As a result, injection-style calorimeters deliver precise, repeatable measurements—ideal for industrial settings where energy content plays a critical role in performance and compliance. Common applications include power generation, fuel processing, combustion research, and natural gas quality control.

Moreover, one of the standout benefits of Injection Style Measurement Calorimeters is their ability to analyze a wide range of fuel types, including both liquid and gaseous fuels. This versatility makes them an essential tool for operations that require real-time, reliable calorific measurements across varying fuel compositions.

Introducing the COSA XENTAUR™ 9800 CXi™ Calorimeter—our latest-generation, injection-style, zero-hydrocarbon emissions calorimeter. Engineered for high performance, the 9800 CXi provides direct, rapid measurement of Calorific Heating Value and BTU, with a measurement range of 0–3000 BTU/scfh. Furthermore, it includes an advanced hydrogen (H₂) measurement option, enabling it to handle high sulfur concentrations with ease—offering unmatched flexibility in harsh process environments.

Ultimately, injection-style measurement calorimeters like the 9800 CXi help optimize fuel usage, improve process efficiency, and ensure compliance with strict energy standards.
