HEAT. isothermal curves corresponding to temperatures Tx and T2. A curve which rep-resents the relation between volume and pressure of a gas when it expands withoutreceiving or giving off heat is called an adiabatic curve (or isentropic curve); curvesb and d in Fig. 31 are portions of the adiabatic… … Fig. 32. to any combination whatever of slow heating (or cooling) and expanding (or con-tracting) so that its changing pressure and volume may be represented by thesuccessive ordinates of the closed curve CC. The process undergone by the fluidis reversible because it is performed very slowly, and…
