  2. Relations between heat capacities - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relations_between_heat...

    P = pressure V = volume n = number of moles R = universal gas constant T = temperature. The ideal gas equation of state can be arranged to give: = / or = / The following partial derivatives are obtained from the above equation of state:

  3. Heat capacity ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_capacity_ratio

    The suffixes P and V refer to constant-pressure and constant-volume conditions respectively. The heat capacity ratio is important for its applications in thermodynamical reversible processes, especially involving ideal gases; the speed of sound depends on this factor.

    Pressure as a function of the height above the sea level. There are two equations for computing pressure as a function of height. The first equation is applicable to the atmospheric layers in which the temperature is assumed to vary with altitude at a non null lapse rate of : = [,, ()] ′, The second equation is applicable to the atmospheric layers in which the temperature is assumed not to ...

  6. Isobaric process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isobaric_process

    For a thermally perfect diatomic gas, the molar specific heat capacity at constant pressure (c p) is 7 / 2 R or 29.1006 J mol −1 deg −1. The molar heat capacity at constant volume (c v) is 5 / 2 R or 20.7862 J mol −1 deg −1. The ratio of the two heat capacities is 1.4. [4] The heat Q required to bring the gas from 300 to 600 K is

  7. Thermal pressure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_Pressure

    In thermodynamics, thermal pressure (also known as the thermal pressure coefficient) is a measure of the relative pressure change of a fluid or a solid as a response to a temperature change at constant volume. The concept is related to the Pressure-Temperature Law, also known as Amontons's law or Gay-Lussac's law. [1]

    at each geopotential altitude, where g is the standard acceleration of gravity, and R specific is the specific gas constant for dry air (287.0528J⋅kg −1 ⋅K −1). The solution is given by the barometric formula. Air density must be calculated in order to solve for the pressure, and is used in calculating dynamic pressure for moving vehicles.
