Detailed Solution
Download Solution PDFExplanation:
Polytropic Process is represented by:
PVn = C
where P is pressure, V is volume, and n is the polytropic index.
| Equation | value of n | Type of process | Type of curve |
| P = C | n = 0 |
Constant Pressure Process (Isobaric Process) |
Straight horizontal line |
| PV = C | n = 1 | Constant Temperature Process (Isothermal process) | Rectangular Hyperbolic Curve |
| PVγ = C | n = γ | Adiabatic Process | Polynomial Curve |
| PV∞ = C | n = ∞ |
Constant Volume Process (Isochoric process) |
Straight vertical line. |
