Abstract
For complex heat capacity measurements, steady state of various types of temperature modulated DSC is theoretically investigated by a set of common comprehensive fundamental equations of heat balance. Heat capacities of heat paths, heat loss to the environment and mutual heat exchange between the sample and the reference material are taken into accounts together with thermal contact effect between the cell and its holder plate. Rigorous and general solutions have been obtained, and useful relations for complex heat capacity measurements have been derived for each type of DSC. They are compared with each other to elucidate unique features of each type of DSC.
