Amount of heat to be supplied to a given amount of a material with the constant volume to produce a unit change in its temperature:
C_V = \left( \frac{\delta Q}{\delta T} \right)_V |
Isochoric Heat Capacity C_V is proportional to the amount of the matter involved in a Heat Transfer process and as such is not a material property.
One can relate it to material properties through the known material mass m or a material volume V:
| |||
---|---|---|---|
c_{mV} | Isochoric specific heat capacity | ||
c_{vV} | Isochoric volumetric heat capacity |
