Pv Diagram Work. Pressure volume graphs are used to describe thermodynamic processes especially for gases. So the actual shape of the line drawn on a pv diagram for an isothermal process is sometimes called an isotherm and they look like that.
Work heat and changes in internal energy can also be determined. Pv diagrams and expansion work. Pv diagram is a steep hyperbola q 0.
Carnot cycle and carnot engine.
After the piston has passed bdc the compression stroke begins. Pressure volume graphs are used to describe thermodynamic processes especially for gases. Pv diagram is a steep hyperbola q 0. Well recall that sal proved that w px v and he used that fact to show the viewer that work area under the curve in a pv diagram.
