What is the Polytropic Exponent, n Value for a Singular Repeating Compressor?

[QUOTE="SherlockOhms, post: 4547503, member: 453053"] [h2]Homework Statement [/h2] So, after performing an experiment a number of times, to calculate the efficiency of a singular repeating compressor, I have found n ≈ 1 i.e. it equals 1.01... in all of my found values. I've now been asked to classify the type of process. Seeing as technically n > 0 and n< C[SUB]p[/SUB]/C[SUB]v[/SUB] I could classify it as a polytropic process. However, is n small enough for me to assume it's isothermal? [h2]Homework Equations[/h2] PV[SUP]n[/SUP] = PV[SUP]n[/SUP] [h2]The Attempt at a Solution[/h2] [/QUOTE]
