dc.description.abstractThe variation of temperature with elevation within a body of gas in convective equilibrium in a gravitational field depends upon the specific heat. Specifically, the sum of the enthalpy and potential energy is the same for all elevations. It is only necessary, therefore, to measure the temperature at two points and the vertical distance between them to find the specific heat at the existing pressure. A calorimeter for securing an approximation to convective equilibrium is described.en_US
