Specific Heat Capacity
Specific heat capacity is the amount of energy needed to raise the temperature of a unit mass by one degree. Water has an especially high value, which affects cooling systems, weather, and climate. This converter helps compare SI, imperial, and laboratory heat-capacity units. It is useful in engineering, chemistry, and earth science.
