FAQ

What is the Thermal Capacitance?
Thermal Capacitance is the ability of the energy storage capacity of a material that absorbs and stores heat for use later. Thermal Capacitance is usually measured using the Joule per Kelvin for Heat Capacity. Note that the value of Thermal Capacitance is always negative.
Can the Thermal Capacitance be negative?
Yes, the Thermal Capacitance, measured in Heat Capacity can be negative.
What unit is used to measure Thermal Capacitance?
Thermal Capacitance is usually measured using the Joule per Kelvin[J/K] for Heat Capacity. Joule per Fahrenheit[J/K], Joule per Celsius[J/K], Joule per Kilokelvin[J/K] are the few other units in which Thermal Capacitance can be measured.
