SUMMARY
Converting a PV diagram to a TS diagram in thermodynamics requires calculating temperature (T) and entropy (S) for each state represented by pressure (P) and volume (V) pairs. The specific method for calculating T and S varies based on the thermodynamic system in question. This process involves plotting T against S to visualize the relationship between these two properties.
