Volumetric heat capacity, often denoted as \\( C_v \\), is a measure of a material's ability to store thermal energy per unit volume for a given temperature change. It quantifies how much heat is required to raise the temperature of a unit volume of a substance by one degree Celsius (or one Kelvin).
