Process-4
Polytropic Process: its P-V relation can be expressed as
PVn = constant, where n is a constant for a specific process
- Isothermal, T=constant, if the gas is an ideal gas then PV=RT=constant, n=1
- Isobaric, P=constant, n=0 (for all substances)
- Constant-volume, V=constant, V=constant(P)(1/n), n=? (for all substances)
- Adiabatic process, n=k for an ideal gas
