In Chapter 2 (Section 2.2a) we qualitatively described the Carnot cycle, but were not able to quantitatively represent the process on a p— V diagram because we did not know the pressure-volume relationship for a reversible adiabatic process. We now know this relationship (see section 3.3c), and in Figure 3.3, we compare a series of p-V adiabats with different starting temperatures for an... 

The purpose of the graph is to demonstrate the effect of airway and tissue resistance on the pressure-volume relationship within the chest. 

We generally distinguish between two methods when the determination of the composition of the equilibrium phases is taking place. In the first method, known amounts of the pure substances are introduced into the cell, so that the overall composition of the mixture contained in the cell is known. The compositions of the co-existing equilibrium phases may be recalculated by an iterative procedure from the predetermined overall composition, and equilibrium temperature and pressure data It is necessary to know the pressure volume temperature (PVT) behaviour, for all the phases present at the experimental conditions, as a function of the composition in the form of a mathematical model (EOS) with a sufficient accuracy. This is very difficult to achieve when dealing with systems at high pressures. Here, the need arises for additional experimentally determined information. One possibility involves the determination of the bubble- or dew point, either optically or by studying the pressure volume relationships of the system. The main problem associated with this method is the preparation of the mixture of known composition in the cell. 

A sample of a volatile oil was placed in a laboratory cell at reservoir temperature of 209°F. The pressure-volume relationship of the liquid was measured. 

Solution This is a pressure-volume relationship at constant temperature so use Boyle s law.

There is some analogy between the critical concentration as defined here and the critical temperature predicted by the van der Waals equation of state, since each of them separates two kinds of behavior of the size distribution function and pressure-volume relationship, respectively.

Edme Mariotte, a French scientist, investigated the pressure-volume relationship of gases independently of Boyle. He did not publish his work until 1676, fourteen years after Boyle had. In many European countries, the mathematical relationship between gas pressure and volume is known as Mariotte s Law.

The P-V Isotherms of Carbon Dioxide The importance of critical temperature of a gas was first discovered by T. Andrews in his experiments on pressure-volume relationships (isotherms) of carbon dioxide gas at a series of temperatures. The isotherms of carbon dioxide determined by him at different temperatures is shown in the figure given above. Consider first the isothermal at the lowest temperature, viz., 13.1 C. The point A represents carbon dioxide in gaseous state occupying a certain volume under a certain pressure. On increasing the pressure, its volume diminishes as is indicated by the curve AB. At B which represents a pressure of 49.8 atm, liquefaction of the gas commences and thereafter a rapid decrease in volume takes place at the same pressure, as more and more of the gas is converted into the liquid state. At C, the gas has been completely liquefied. Now, as the liquid is only slightly compressible, further increase of pressure produces only a very small decrease in volume. A steep line CD that is almost vertical shows this. 

The results of a study conducted by Muller and Augsburger [16] suggest that the pressure-volume relationship determined during powder bed compression is affected by the instantaneous punch speed profile of the displacement-time waveform for all materials studied, even though they deform by different mechanisms. It appears that the instantaneous punch speed profile of the particular displacement-time waveform is a confounding factor of Heckel analysis. 

Successful engine design tailors the cylinder aerodynamics to achieve the desired burn rate. In recent times, this has been aided by laser diagnostics and computational fluid dynamics. In-cylinder diagnostic techniques for production engines include the use of rapid response pressure transducers, ion gauges as markers of flame progress, laser doppler velocimetry and emission spectroscopy. These have been reviewed historically by Witze [103]. The two zone analysis of Chun and Heywood [104] enables the net heat release rate to be derived from the pressure-volume relationship [105].

The total pressure of a mixture of gases is equal to the sum of the pressures of the individual components. The pressure-volume relationship of an ideal gas (i.e. a gas composed of atoms with negligible volume and which undergo perfectly elastic collisions with one another) is defined as ...
