could be used at once, therewould be no loss, since the heat imparted to it would beutilized in doing work, and it would make no differencewhether the compression was adiabatic or isothermal. Suchis not the case, however. The air, after leaving the com-pressor, is stored in a large reservoir called… … D3IE reaches them, its temperature has been reduced to that ofthe atmosphere. As a consequence of this reduction intemperature, the pressure falls to a point determined by theintersection of an ordi-nate drawn through thepoint ITand the isother-mal curve E B A.
