A version of the caloric theory heat stated that all bodies emit and receive caloric at the same time. This aspect of caloric theory is an accord with the currently accepted principles of thermodynamics however Rumford rejected it as impossible: <> Certainly if heat were a substance rather than

I found a video demonstrating Pictet's classic experiment of radiant heating and radiant cooling which inspired Rumford's work. Unfortunately the video is in Russian. but if you know what it is about it is easy to follow along. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mW4T0ZaiGno There are two parabolic
