posed to be fixed by initial Xi. If it were made a function of x orof p, down the curve, the equation might be accommodated to the truelaw, but it would then be too complicated for convenient use. Exceptfor approximations of comparatively short range, the simple formulais not reliable. That the… … Co. Ft. 5 l> 10 15 Fig. 51. — Adiabatic Curves for Wet Steam.A. Constant quality. B.
