Pv Diagram Isobaric. At the top is a movable piston that has a few kilograms mass. Ch 7 lesson e page 10 isobaric process paths on pv and ts diagrams.
The heat transfer into or out of the system does work but also changes the internal energy of the system. So on a pv diagram an isothermal process is gonna look something like this it s gonna curve like 1 x and it can be an isothermal expansion if volume increases or an isothermal compression if volume decreases. Weighted piston flexible container in earth s atmosphere hot air balloon.
It explains how to calculate the work done by a gas for an isobaric process iso.
If the process moves towards the left then it is a compression. Ch 7 lesson e page 10 isobaric process paths on pv and ts diagrams. An isobaric process is a thermodynamic process in which the pressure of the system remains constant p const. Imagine that you have a cylinder filled with a gas.
