Determines the specific heat capacity of combustion air for both current and improved conditions, as a function of air temperature. This value is important for quantifying the energy required to heat the combustion air.

\begin{equation}\label{eq:pheic-air-specific-heat} C_{p,air} = C_B + C_C \cdot T_{CA}\end{equation}

\(C_{p,air}\)Air specific heat \([\unit{ \btu\per\pound\per\degreeFahrenheit}]\)
\(C_B\)Air specific heat base (0.017828518) \([\unit{ \btu\per\pound\per\degreeFahrenheit}]\)
\(C_C\)Air specific heat temp coeff (0.000002556) \([\unit{ \btu\per\pound\per\degreeFahrenheit}]\)
\(T_{CA}\)Combustion air temperature \([\unit{ \degreeFahrenheit}]\)
