as, since pv is somethingless than the constant value mRr. This series of changeswill be represented by the curve ah. having an equation (7) pv = Br—Cfa where B and C are con- &stants. At the point h thevapor has reached satura-tion, and further compres-sion is followed by conden-sation, the… … O a Fig. 157. liquid is very incompres-sible, from the point c an immense increase of pressure cor-responds to but a very small diminution of the volume. If this process of compression were to be repeated at ahigher temperature, say 200° C, a new isothermal, fghhwould be obtained. The point of…
