Peabody, Cecil H. (Cecil Hobart), 1855-1934 · New York, J. Wiley & sons; [etc., etc.] · leaf 113
ithtemperature for ordinates we get a diagram like 30a; very com-monly absolute temperaturesare taken in drawing the dia-gram in order to emphasizethe role played by absolutetemperatures in the deter-mination of the efficiency ofCarnot s cycle. It would seembetter to take the temperatureby the… … Fig. 30a. 0 -}- X r so that the entropy of a mixture containing x part of steam canbe determined by dividing the line such as de (which representsthe entropy of vaporization) in the proper ratio. dcde = X. It is convenient to divide the several lines like ah and de intotenths and hundredths, and…
