Thermodynamic Processes
... Figure: Real Piston and Cylinder No heat can flow into or out of the system because the cylinder is perfectly insulated from the surroundings (adiabatic enclosure). An adiabatic process will be described since there will be no external source or sink of heat energy. A weight is removed from the pis ...
