Expand description

Heat capacity (base unit joule per kelvin, kg · m² · s⁻² · K⁻¹).

Heat capacity has the same kind as temperature interval, as this quantity relates to change of temperature. Not of kind TemperatureKind, used by thermodynamic temperature. See thermodynamic temperature for a full explanation.

This quantity might be used to define the heat capacity of an object. To define heat capacity of a material, use specific heat capacity.
