Avogadro.

Reflexions on the Motive Power of Fire: A Critical Edition ...
Only the heat associated with friction had proved really intractable to the calorists,
as Count Rumford had demonstrated long before in his famous cannon-boring
experiments of 1798.82 Carnot, then, was a calorist, though a cautious one.
Both Rumford and Davy might, however, have been successfully Position met by
any calorist who was willing to abandon some of the less essential parts of the
doctrine. When heat is generated by friction or compression, the calorists ...

... least the first step towards it, is provided by Sadi Carnot's theory of the relation
between work and heat- transfer. His theory was based on the calorist idea that
heat-transfer is always limited by the total quantity of heat available in the system.

Brain-wise: Studies in Neurophilosophy
Heat, he proposed, just is micromechanical motion.19 Notice that a really
determined calorist could persist in the face of Rum- ford's experiments,
preferring to try to develop the option that every object really does contain an
infinite amount of ...

... Leslie was a calorist but Rumford a wave theorist (pp. 112-115: see also Olson

The North British Review
It is certain that even Davy himself was led astray in his argument, by using the
hypothesis of change of capacity as the basis of his reasoning, and that he might
have been met successfully by any able Calorist who, though maintaining the ...

Absolute Zero and the Conquest of Cold
Among the calorist critics Joule hoped to refute was Clapeyron. Joule was
incensed by Clapeyron's contention, derived from Carnot, that in the transfer of
heat from furnace to boiler in a steam engine, large amounts of heat were lost. "
