In this article, I introduce the Continuity Equation, explain why it is important to know it and show the context of the continuity equation with an example calculation. Since this article refers to the article on volumetric flow rate and flow velocity, I recommend you to read it as well.

In this category the most important basics for building services engineering are presented. The following is a summary of the articles published so far:
Thermodynamics
Volumetric Flow Rate and Flow Velocity
In this article I introduce the volumetric flow rate and the flow velocity as further physical quantities and show you two examples how you can calculate them.

In this article I show you the physical quantity “density” and an example how you can calculate it with the help of volume and mass.

In this small article I will introduce you to the heat flow rate, also called heat performance, as another basic and important quantity of heating technology. The heat flow rate is given as 
(Q point).
What is Specific Heat Capacity?
Today I would like to introduce the specific heat capacity to you in a slightly smaller article. The specific heat capacity 
indicates the quantity of heat 
that a substance can release or absorb in relation to its mass 
when the temperature changes. The temperature change is given as temperature difference 
in Kelvin 
.
