This question relates to calculating heat capacity in refractory and insulation boards used in furnaces and ovens. I have the thermal conductivity data (Btu/in/sq.ft/F) data points and the density of the materials. If the manufacturer does not show the heat capacity in Btu/lb DegreeF of the insulation what is the formula and method to calculate it?
