Heat Capacity Ratio Using Specific Heat Capacities

The heat capacity ratio is the ratio of the heat capacity at constant pressure to heat capacity at constant volume.

The heat capacity ratio equals the ratio of specific isobaric heat capacity to the specific isochoric heat capacity.

Formula

QuantityVariable["γ", "HeatCapacityRatio"] == QuantityVariable[Subscript["c", "p"], "SpecificHeatCapacity"]/QuantityVariable[Subscript["c", "V"], "SpecificHeatCapacity"]
