Objective: To measure daily energy expenditure (DEE) with indirect calorimetric facilities in sedentary and active subjects. To estimate daily energy needs with the FAO/WHO/UNU (1985) procedures (EDEE ...
In direct calorimetry, the heat produced by a living organism is measured directly. Indirect calorimetry, by contrast, estimates heat production from the organism's oxygen (O 2) consumption and carbon ...
Users can use simple equipment to measure enthalpy, a term often associated with physicists but significantly relevant to daily life. Heat transfer plays a pivotal role in all these processes, and ...
