The heat capacity at constant volume is illustrated by the image below. To calculate heat capacity at constant volume, two essential parameters are needed and these parameters are Temperature Independent Constant (A) and Absolute Temperature (T).
The formula for calculating heat capacity at constant volume:
Cv = AT³
Where:
Cv = Heat Capacity at Constant Volume
A = Temperature Independent Constant
T = Absolute Temperature
Given an example;
Find the heat capacity at constant volume when the temperature independent constant is 12 and the absolute temperature is 18.
This implies that;
A = Temperature Independent Constant = 12
T = Absolute Temperature = 18
Cv = AT³
So, Cv = (12)(18)³
Cv = (12)(5832)
Cv = 69984
Therefore, the heat capacity at constant volume is 69984 J/kg K.
