Jek. Schawe et Gwh. Hohne, THE ANALYSIS OF TEMPERATURE MODULATED DSC MEASUREMENTS BY MEANS OF THE LINEAR-RESPONSE THEORY, Thermochimica acta, 287(2), 1996, pp. 213-223
A consistent description of temperature modulated differential scannin
g calorimeter (TM-DSC) curves based on irreversible thermodynamics is
presented within the scope of the validity of the linear response appr
oximation. Both time-independent and time-dependent processes are incl
uded. For time-dependent (linear) processes, the heat how rate is conn
ected to the convolution integral. This results in a generalized heat
capacity which is frequency dependent and, on principle, a complex fun
ction of it.
