∙ 16y ago"Adiabatic process" refers to processes that take place in a closed system with no
heat interaction with it's surroundings.
"Isentropic process" refers to processes that take place in a closed system with no
heat interaction with the surroundings (adiabatic process) and internally reversible.
This is, no internal generation of entropy, entropy stays constant, which is what is
meant by "isentropic".
We can also say, an isentropic process is one where entropy stays constant, and no
heat interaction of the system with the surroundings takes place (adiabatic process).
Or, an adiabatic process can be irreversible, or reversible (isentropic).

∙ 12y agoIn adiabatic compression, there is no heat exchange with the surroundings, so the temperature of the gas increases as it is compressed. In isothermal compression, the temperature of the gas remains constant during compression because any heat generated is dissipated to keep the temperature constant.

∙ 16y agoAn adiabatic compressor does not exchange heat with its surroundings so the temperature of the compressed material will increase, in an isothermal compressor the material's temperature is kept constant by expelling heat to it's surroundings.

∙ 14y agoAdiabatic expansion is an increase in volume while pressure is maintained constant. When this occurs, temperature also increases.
Isothermal expansion is an increase in volume while temperature is maintained constant. When this occurs, pressure decreases.

∙ 15y agoIsothermal process is going on under constant temperature, adiabatic is a process where no heat is exchanged (this does not imply that temperature is constant).

∙ 14y agoAdiabatic means without any transfer of heat, and isothermal means having only one constant temperature.
Heat of compression refers to the increase in temperature that occurs when a gas or air is compressed. It is computed using the formula: Q = mCp(T2-T1), where Q is the heat of compression, m is the mass of the gas, Cp is the specific heat at constant pressure, T1 is the initial temperature, and T2 is the final temperature after compression.
Nylon is a synthetic material, while cotton is a natural material (resource).
Glycerol is highly soluble in water due to its hydrophilic nature, while triglycerides are insoluble in water due to their hydrophobic fatty acid tails. Triglycerides are more soluble in non-polar solvents like oils and fats.
Mass is a measure of how much matter an object has. Weight is a measure of how strongly gravity pulls on that matter.
The difference in energy between the energy levels determines color of light emitted when an electron moves from one energy level to another.
Folded mountain ranges located in the middle of a tectonic plate are often formed by compressional forces within the plate itself. These mountains can result from the collision and convergence of separate blocks of crust within the plate, leading to folding and uplifting of the rock layers. The process may be attributed to factors such as ancient tectonic events, rifting processes, or horizontal compression of the crust.
