Introduction to the second law
... Let’s show a second example: how the second law also defines the conditions for mechanical equilibrium: o Consider two different ideal gases A and B enclosed in a cylinder, partitioned by a movable (frictionless) piston as illustrated in the figure below. The volume of the cylinder cannot change (VA ...

Isentropic Efficiency in Engineering Thermodynamics Introduction
... Examples are also given in the text for the isentropic efficiencies of nozzles and compressors, but they are all similar to the turbine example shown. Once you accept that a flowing fluid can have the properties of an equilibrium state, the rest follows. We see that the isentropic approximation is p ...
