COMPLEX HEAT CAPACITY In general, one can represent a complex number z = a + ib, with i = v/ z = Izld ~ = Izl Izl(cosO : (a 2 + b2 ; + isinO), cosO - a Izl (18) with ; and i, as" sinO - b . Izl (19) For the description of periodic changes, as in modulated-temperature differential scanning calorimetry, TMDSC, or Fourier analyses, the introduction of complex quantities is convenient and lucid, but brings no new physical insight over the representation in real numbers. The complex heat capacity has proven useful in the interpretation of thermal conductivity of gases of molecules with slowly responding internal degrees of freedom and may be of use representing the slow response in the glass transition.
13 illustrate the approximate C - H motions of the bending vibrations. The first type of motion involves the symmetrical bending of the hydrogens (3). The bending motion is indicated by the arrows. The next type of oscillation is the rocking motion (4). In this case both hydrogens move in the same direction and rock the chain back and forth. The third type of motion in this group, listed as number 5, is the wagging motion. One can think of it as a motion in which the two hydrogens come out of the plane of the paper and then go back behind the plane of the paper.
This limits the precision to +3% or less. In the more recently developed temperature-modulated DSC (TMDSC) [4], a sinusoidal or other periodic change in temperature is superimposed on the underlying heating rate. The heat capacity is now given by" - + C; 2 A (4) where A~ and A are the maximum amplitudes of the modulation found in the temperature difference and sample temperature, respectively, and a ) i s the modulation frequency 2 K/p (p - modulation period in seconds). The equation represents the reversing heat capacity.
