A Differential Scanning Calorimeter (DSC) is a device used to measure the amount of energy, specifically heat.
Typically, it is employed to accurately measure the amount of energy used in processes such as heating or cooling. "Differential" refers to detecting differences between two different measurements or conditions and acquiring data based on these differences. It measures temperature differences or flow rates at the inlet and outlet of flowing fluids, calculating the energy quantity from these differences. This enables a precise understanding of the energy consumed by the system.
By primarily measuring the energy usage for heating or cooling in buildings or entire facilities, efficiency improvements and energy savings become achievable. Additionally, in factories or manufacturing facilities, understanding energy usage in production processes allows for facility improvements.
