Specific Heat Properties

  • Isobaric Specific Heat (Cp): The heat capacity at constant pressure (ΔP = 0), commonly used for substances in open systems or processes under constant pressure conditions.
  • Isochoric Specific Heat (Cv): The heat capacity at constant volume (closed system), applicable for isovolumetric or isometric processes.
  • The specific heat values (Cp and Cv) for ethylene vary with temperature, which is critical for accurate calculations in thermal systems involving heating or cooling. Data should be corrected using temperature-dependent values as provided.
