y dry air is tt= 1fiQ =1.406. X for moist air has some value between 1.4 and 1.2. The equation PVr = C may be easily derived from the twofundamental equations of thermodynamics derived on page 152: H = KpdT-VdP,H = KvdT+PdV. When the expansion is adiabatic H = 0: KpdT=VdP,KvdT= -PdV,K2= VdP Kv~r~… … Fig. 94. Differentiate PVn = C.
