Constant (energy)

Heat capacity at constant volume, $c_v$ [J/kg/K]

$$c_v = \sum_{i=1}^N c_i T^{i-1}$$

Usage

The eConst thermodynamics model is defined using the entries:

thermodynamics
{
    Cv              <scalar>;
    Hf              <scalar>;
    Tref            <scalar>;
    Esref           <scalar>;
}

Where

• Cv : specific heat capacity at constant volume [J/kg/K]
• Hf : heat of formation [J/kg]
• Tref : reference temperature [K]; default is Tstd
• Esref : reference sensible enthalpy around which to linearise [J/kg]; default is zero.
