ize the point that it canbe represented by a number. Let it be required to find thechange of entropy during an isothermal expansion of one poundair from four cubic feet to eight cubic. The heat applied may be obtained by integrating the expression ,, .dO Idv , . p dv the value of the latent heat… … Fig. 23. A problem for air is chosen because it can be readily workedout at this place; as a matter of fact, there are few occasions inpractice where there is reason to refer to entropy of air. Application to a Reversible Cycle. — A very important resultis obtained by the application of equation…
