Enthalpies of Formation and Enthalpies of Reactions

You can use calorimetric data for phase transformations in the POP file. This data could be the result of, for example, direct-reaction calorimetry, solution calorimetry or combustion calorimetry. Information about enthalpies of formation can also be derived from theoretical principles.

Example ED_EXP commands
