Passage of a thermodynamic system from an initial to a final state of thermodynamic equilibrium.
Below is the list of popular popular ideal Thermodynamic processes:
Isothermal process |
| LaTeX Math Block |
|---|
| T(t) = {\rm const} \Leftrightarrow \frac{\partial T}{\partial t} = 0 |
| Quasi-isothermal process | | LaTeX Math Block |
|---|
|---|
|
T({\bf r | , t) | = T({ | bf r}) \Leftrightarrow \frac{\partial T}{\partial t} = 0 |
|
Isobaric process |
| LaTeX Math Block |
|---|
| P(t) = {\rm const} \Leftrightarrow \frac{\partial P}{\partial t} = 0 |
|
|---|
| Isochoric process |
| LaTeX Math Block |
|---|
| V(t) = {\rm const} \Leftrightarrow \frac{\partial V}{\partial t} = 0 |
|
|---|
Isentropic process |
| LaTeX Math Block |
|---|
| S(t) = {\rm const} \Leftrightarrow \frac{\partial S}{\partial t} = 0 |
|
|---|
Adiabatic process |
| LaTeX Math Block |
|---|
| \frac{\partial (Q^{\downarrow}-Q^{\uparrow})}{\partial t} = 0 |
|
|---|
All the above processes are idealized and the practical studies and engineering are dealing with approximations to these processes, like for example, Quasi-isothermal process.
