An isenthalpic process or isoenthalpic process is a process that proceeds without any change in enthalpy, H; or specific enthalpy, h. [1] Overview.
T–s (entropy vs. temperature) diagram of an isentropic process, which is a vertical line segment. The entropy of a given mass does not change during a process that is internally reversible and adiabatic.
In an isenthalpic process, the enthalpy is constant. [2] A horizontal line in the diagram represents an isenthalpic process. A vertical line in the h–s chart represents an isentropic process. The process 3–4 in a Rankine cycle is isentropic when the steam turbine is said to be an ideal one. So the expansion process in a turbine can be ...
Isenthalpic : The process that proceeds without any change in enthalpy or specific enthalpy. Polytropic : The process that obeys the relation =. Reversible : The process where the net entropy production is zero; =.
The flash evaporation of a single-component liquid is an isenthalpic process and is often referred to as an adiabatic flash. The following equation, derived from a simple heat balance around the throttling valve or device, is used to predict how much of a single-component liquid is vaporized.
In thermodynamics, the Joule–Thomson effect (also known as the Joule–Kelvin effect or Kelvin–Joule effect) describes the temperature change of a real gas or liquid (as differentiated from an ideal gas) when it is expanding; typically caused by the pressure loss from flow through a valve or porous plug while keeping it insulated so that no heat is exchanged with the environment.
Enthalpy-Entropy diagram of stagnation state. In fluid dynamics, a stagnation point is a point in a flow field where the local velocity of the fluid is zero. The isentropic stagnation state is the state a flowing fluid would attain if it underwent a reversible adiabatic deceleration to zero velocity.
An isenthalpic process introduces no change in enthalpy in the system. Polytropic processes. A polytropic process is a ...
