| 11. | In a non-adiabatic process, there are indefinitely many paths between the initial and final states.
|
| 12. | The adiabatic process for air has a characteristic temperature-pressure curve, so the process determines the lapse rate.
|
| 13. | I'm given a cycle that consists of an adiabatic process, an isobaric process, and an isochoric process.
|
| 14. | Put differently, because this is an adiabatic process, the work done on the system is the change in internal energy.
|
| 15. | In thermodynamics, an adiabatic process is a change that occurs without heat flow, and slowly compared to the time to reach equilibrium.
|
| 16. | It is now understood that same-symmetry intersections play as important a role in non-adiabatic processes as symmetry-allowed intersections.
|
| 17. | Consequently no adiabatic process initiated at nonzero temperature can lead to zero temperature . " ( H " Callen, pp . 189 190)
|
| 18. | If only adiabatic processes were of interest, and heat could be ignored, the concept of internal energy would hardly arise or be needed.
|
| 19. | An adiabatic process is one where there is no heat transfer between the fluid and the surroundings : the system is insulated against heat transfer.
|
| 20. | He considered pseudo-adiabatic processes describing air as it is lifted, expands, cools, and eventually condenses and precipitates its water vapor.
