The discussion centers on the relationship between pressure, temperature, and volume in water during an adiabatic process. Unlike ideal gases, water is virtually incompressible in its liquid or solid states, resulting in minimal volume change under high pressure. Consequently, when pressure increases without heat addition, there is negligible change in internal energy or temperature. Bernoulli's equation is referenced to explain the dynamics of water flow under varying pressures.
PREREQUISITESStudents and professionals in thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, and engineering, particularly those interested in the behavior of water under varying pressure and temperature conditions.
Water in its liquid or solid state is virtually incompressible, so there is little volume change even under very high pressure. So there is not much work that is done when increasing pressure to water. If there is not much work done and no heat added (because it is adiabatic), there is no not much change in internal energy (ie. temperature) with pressure.JD9 said:I was just wondering if there is a relationship between Pressure, Temperature , and Volume like there is for Ideal Gases, but for water.
ie. for Ideal Gas:
TV^(gamma-1) = constant
PV^gamma = constant
Any insight would be greatly appreciated,
