In termodinamica, il calore è definito come il trasferimento di energia tra due sistemi associato ad una differenza di temperatura e non imputabile ad un lavoro. Il calore è quindi una forma di scambio di energia fra due corpi e non una forma di energia contenuta in un corpo, come ad esempio l'energia interna.
