Question
Draw the TP diagram (P-x axis, T-y axis), VT(T-x axis, V-y axis) diagram for
- Isochoric process
- Isothermal process
- Isobaric process
Solution
a. Isobaric process: PV0 = nRT
P(T) = `("nRT")/"V"_0` and T(V) = Multivalued
b. Isothermal process: PV = nRT0
P(T) = Multivalued and T(V) = T0
c. Isobaric process: P0V = nRT
P(T) = P0 and T(V) = `("P"_0"V")/"nR"`
