For a perfect gas, the internal energy ([latex]U[/latex]) and enthalpy ([latex]H[/latex]) are functions of temperature only. Their changes are given by [latex]\Delta U = m c_v \Delta T[/latex] and [latex]\Delta H = m c_p \Delta T[/latex], where [latex]c_v[/latex] and [latex]c_p[/latex] are the specific heats at constant volume and pressure, respectively, and are assumed to be constant.
