For an isothermal, reversible process, this integral equals the area under the relevant pressure-volume isotherm, and is indicated in purple in Figure 2 for an ideal gas.

In 1843 he published results of experiments showing that the heating effect he had quantified in 1841 was due to generation of heat in the reversible process.
43.
Each dissociation absorbs a great deal of energy in a reversible process and this greatly reduces the thermodynamic temperature of hypersonic gas decelerated near the aerospace object.
44.
The reason is the theorem that any reversible process is also a quasi-static one, even though ( as we have illustrated above ) the converse is not true.
45.
A reversible process changes the state of a system in such a way that the net change in the combined entropy of the system and its surroundings is zero.
46.
A reversible process in engineering is a process or operation of a system or device such that a net reverse in operation will accomplish the converse of the original function.
47.
The name " potential " energy originally signified the idea that the energy could readily be transferred as work at least in an idealized system ( reversible process, see below ).
48.
In practical situations, it is essential to differentiate between the two : any engineer would remember to include friction when calculating the dissipative entropy generation, so there are no reversible processes in practice.
49.
This is a reversible process the inverse process is called pair creation in which the rest mass of particles is created from energy of two ( or more ) annihilating photons.
50.
A and B can react to form C and D or, in the reverse reaction, C and D can react to form A and B . This is distinct from reversible process in thermodynamics.
