 ISOMETRIC PROCESS
(ISOCHORIC PROCESS)

Manner of changing the state or thermal condition of

fluid at constant volume. It could be internally
reversible or internally irreversible process.
Example:

A scuba tank contains 1.5 kg of air. The air in the tank is

initially at 15 C. The tank is left near an engine exhaust
line, and the tanks pressure doubles. Determine
a) The final temperature
b) The change in internal energy
c) the heat added
 ISOBARIC PROCESS

Is an internally reversible change of state without

changing the pressure during the process.
Example:

Consider that 1 kg of air has a 21.7 kJ decrease of

internal energy while its temperature is reduced to one
third of the initial temperature during a reversible non-
flow constant pressure process. Determine
a) The initial and final temperature
b) Q
c) W
d) S
 ISOTHERMAL PROCESS

Is an internally reversible change of state of the

system or substance without changing the
temperature.
Example:

The gain in entropy during an isothermal nonflow

process of 5lb of air at 60F is 0.642 Btu/R. What is
a) The ratio V2/V1
b) The ratio P2/P1
c) W
d) Q
 ISENTROPIC PROCESS

Is an adiabatic and internally reversible process or a

constant entropy change of state.
 POLYTROPIC PROCESS

Is an internally reversible process in accordance with

pVn = C, where n is any constant other than 1, 0, ,
and k.
