2) A small addition to my question 2): What confuses me is that the compressibility factor is used to correct for "non-ideality" - that is, for the gas law PV = ZNRT, Z is the compressibility which expresses the "degree of ideality". Z=1 means that it is the ideal gas law. In other words if k =...

Several questions: What does compression actually means? In the case of isentropic calculations a changed in density (or specific volume) is included in the calculations (isentropic.jpg) so isentropic means that compressibility is included in those calculations or what?In a previous thread, a...
