  2. Isochoric process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isochoric_process

    In thermodynamics, an isochoric process, also called a constant-volume process, an isovolumetric process, or an isometric process, is a thermodynamic process during which the volume of the closed system undergoing such a process remains constant. An isochoric process is exemplified by the heating or the cooling of the contents of a sealed ...

  4. Thermal equation of state of solids - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_equation_of_state...

    According to the first section above, an heating for a solid can not be a isochoric, so the pressure change in a non-isochoric heating process is not exactly the thermal pressure. When a solid is loaded with a pressure gauge, and heated/compressed together at high P - T , the thermal pressure of the solid does not equal that of its gauge.

  5. Chemical thermodynamics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_thermodynamics

    During the early 20th century, two major publications successfully applied the principles developed by Gibbs to chemical processes and thus established the foundation of the science of chemical thermodynamics. The first was the 1923 textbook Thermodynamics and the Free Energy of Chemical Substances by Gilbert N. Lewis and Merle Randall.

    Isochoric may refer to: cell-transitive, in geometry; isochoric process, a constant volume process in chemistry or thermodynamics; Isochoric model

  7. Thermodynamic cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermodynamic_cycle

    Example of a real system modelled by an idealized process: PV and TS diagrams of a Brayton cycle mapped to actual processes of a gas turbine engine Thermodynamic cycles may be used to model real devices and systems, typically by making a series of assumptions to reduce the problem to a more manageable form.

  8. Polytropic process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polytropic_process

    A polytropic process is a thermodynamic process that obeys the relation: = where p is the pressure , V is volume , n is the polytropic index , and C is a constant. The polytropic process equation describes expansion and compression processes which include heat transfer.

  9. Temperature–entropy diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Temperature–entropy_diagram

    In thermodynamics, a temperature–entropy (T–s) diagram is a thermodynamic diagram used to visualize changes to temperature (T ) and specific entropy (s) during a thermodynamic process or cycle as the graph of a curve. It is a useful and common tool, particularly because it helps to visualize the heat transfer during a process.
