Expansion of a Perfect Gas

Brand: TecQuipment
Origin: United Kingdom
Product code: TD1004V

    Key Features:

    • TD1004V comes with VDAS® Onboard featuring data acquisition via USB
    • Bench-top experiment for convenient use in a laboratory
    • Highly visual experiment with accurate and repeatable results
    • Simple and safe to use – needs no tools
    • Supplied with an electric pump for easy compression and decompression of the gas (air)

    Description:

    • The apparatus consists of two frame-mounted interconnected transparent and rigid vessels, with one vessel equipped for operation under pressure and the second vessel under vacuum.
    • The vessel is pressurised and vacuumed using an
      electrical air pump together with valves and tappings.
    • The vessels are independent and can also be used
      together to enable the study of various thermodynamic
      processes.

    Learning Outcomes:

    • The non-flow energy equation and the first law of thermodynamics
    • Clement and Desormes experiment
    • The behaviour of a perfect gas and its describing equations
    • Reversible adiabatic process (isentropic expansion)
    • Irreversible adiabatic process and the second law of thermodynamics
    • Constant volume process and Gay Lussac’s law
    • Constant internal energy process
    • Polytrophic process
