1. Energy Density Of Wax Oil

Densities of common products in both Imperial and SI-units

Energy content or calorific value is the same as the heat of combustion, and can be calculated from thermodynamical values, or measured in a suitable apparatus. A known amount of the fuel is burned at constant pressure and under standard conditions (0°C and 1 bar) and the heat released is captured in a known mass of water in a calorimeter. RDX undergoes a deflagration to detonation transition (DDT) in confinement and certain circumstances. The velocity of detonation of RDX at a density of 1.76 g/cm 3 is 8750 m/s. It starts to decompose at approximately 170 °C and melts at 204 °C. At room temperature, it is very stable.

Note! - be aware that for many of the products listed below there is a difference between 'bulk density' and actual 'solid or material density'. This may not be clear in the description of the products. Always double check the values with other sources before important calculations.
