4) Adiabatic Process
5) Poly-Tropic Process

Constant Volume Process:

A process in which volume of the
system remains constant though other
variables may change.
An isochoric process is a constant
volume process. When the volume of a
system doesnt change, it will do no
work on its surroundings.
W=0
U = Q
Heating gas in a closed container is an

Constant Pressure Process:

A process in which pressure of
the system remains constant
though other variables may
change

In an isobaric process, P is fixed. Work done by

the gas is W = P (V2 V1) = n R (T2 T1)
Since temperature changes, so does internal
energy. The heat absorbed goes partly to
increase internal energy and partly to do work.
The change in temperature for a given amount
of heat is determined by the specific heat of the
gas at constant pressure.

Isothermal Process:
A process in which Temperature of the
system remains constant though other
variables may change.
P,V may change but temperature is
constant.
The cylinder must have conducting walls
It must happen very slowly so that heat
produced during compression is
absorbed by surroundings and heat lost
during compression is supplied by

Process:

Adiabatic Process:
A process in which no heat is
exchanged is with the surroundings.
In an adiabatic process, the system
is insulated from the surroundings
and heat absorbed or released is
zero. Since there is no heat
exchange with the surroundings,

 When expansion happens

temperature falls
When gas is compressed,
temperature rises

 W= P2V2-P1V1/ (v-1)= nR (T1-T2)

Hence if T2>T1 then W<0 or work is
done on
The gas (COMPRESSION)
If T1>T2 the W>0 or work is done by
gas (Expansion)

Poly-Tropic Process:

PV Diagram Of Polytropic Process:

 The Work done by a Polytropic process is

as follows;

Work done = ( p1 V1 - p2 V2 ) / ( n 1)

Where;
p1= pressure at point 1(N/m2)
p21 = pressure at point 2(N/m2)
V1 = volume at pint 1 (m3)
V2 = volume at pint 2 (m3)
n = constant or polytropic index.
