In the discussion regarding heat transfer calculations, the two primary equations mentioned are Q=T*m*(delta s) for entropy and Q=m*(delta h) for enthalpy. The consensus is that the choice between using entropy or enthalpy should be based on which method simplifies the calculations. The reference to Gibbs' work provides additional context for understanding these concepts in thermodynamics.
