Measurement of the quantities of heat in bodies.
Measurement of the amount of energy (heat) liberated by metabolism.
The measurement of the quantity of heat involved in various processes, such as chemical reactions, changes of state, and formations of solutions, or in the determination of the heat capacities of substances. The fundamental unit of measurement is the joule or the calorie (4.184 joules). (McGraw-Hill Dictionary of Scientific and Technical Terms, 4th ed)
The technique of measuring heat changes. The are two basic types of calorimetry: constant pressure and constant volume.
Experimental determination of heat absorbed or released by a chemical or physical change.
the science of measuring heat flow.
Analytical measurement of quantities of heat.
measurement of the heats of chemical reactions.
endothermic reaction ion activity nuclear force specific heat
the measurement of the amount of energy produced or absorbed. Can be used to measure the energy content of food or the Basal metabolic rate of an animal or human.
Calorimetry is the science of measuring the heat of chemical reactions or physical changes. Calorimetry involves the use of a calorimeter. The word calorimetry is derived from the Latin word calor, meaning heat.
