Caloric theory is a historical scientific theory that was proposed in the 18th century to explain the nature of heat. According to this theory, heat was thought to be a fluid called "caloric" that flowed from hotter objects to colder ones. Caloric was considered a substance that was conserved in thermodynamic processes, meaning that it could not be created or destroyed but could only move from one body to another.
