4. Isobaric mass heat capacity measurement
By adopting a specific experimental procedure, differential scanning calorimetry makes it possible to determine the mass heat capacity at constant pressure (isobaric) c p .
For a sample of mass m :
Therefore, for a sample of mass m, during a temperature sweep at constant speed β and constant pressure, the heat flux Φ has the expression:
