steam from the water, and apply heat (su-perheat it), and it may have the same pressure at widelydifferent temperatures.^^ When a gas or vapor is compressed, the heat equiva-lent of the mechanical work of compression tends to raiseits temperature, and consequently its pressure, more rap-idly than… … M < o w CO s Linde Ice Machine 865 the adiabatic curve will be traced on the indicator dia-gram. This is the curve which represents the compressionor expansion of a gas without loss or gain of heat. In the Linde machine the cooling of the vapor in thecompression cylinder is effected by the…
