Question

A thermodynamic cycle in the pressure $ (\mathrm{P}) $-volume $ (\mathrm{V}) $ plane is given below: $ \mathrm{AB} $ and $ \mathrm{CD} $ are isothermal processes while $ \mathrm{BC} $ and $ \mathrm{DA} $ are adiabatic processes. The same cycle in the temperature (T)- entropy $ (S) $ plane is :, , , ,

MARKS App · Accepted Answer

AB is isothermal reversible expansion process i.e. ΔT = 0 and S increases as there is increase in volume. BC is adiabatic reversible expansion process q rev = 0 i.e. temperature decreases and ΔS = 0 CD is isothermal reversible compression process i.e. ΔT = 0 and S decreases as there is decrease in volume. DA is adiabatic reversible compression process q res = 0 i.e. temperature decreases and ΔS = 0
