A term used to describe methods wherein a
reagent is continuously fed into a flowing analyte stream and the temperature difference
is measured before and after a reactor (mixing chamber). Alternatively, the temperature
may be measured in a differential manner between a reference and a reactor chamber.
The analyte concentration is directly proportional to the measured temperature difference.
Synonymous with
continuous flowenthalpimetric analysis.
