15Round Robin 8 Observations
- Calorimeter Cooling Water cannot be too hot.
Keep in mind that its cooling water and the
water temperature should be checked periodically.
- There were no significant differences in test
results during this Round Robin with the labs
using Kaowool vs. other refractory board. - Labs using an Electric Radiant Panel that are
experiencing higher than average stabilization
times should check their controller settings for
their mode of operation. - Non-Participating Labs will be included in future
Round Robins.
