  2. Fanno flow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fanno_flow

    The change in entropy is 0 at M = 1 for each model, but the previous statement means the change in entropy from the same arbitrary point to the sonic point is different for the Fanno and Rayleigh flow models. If initial values of s i and M i are defined, a new equation for dimensionless entropy versus Mach number can be defined for each model ...

  3. Isentropic process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isentropic_process

    The entropy of a given mass does not change during a process that is internally reversible and adiabatic. A process during which the entropy remains constant is called an isentropic process, written Δ s = 0 {\displaystyle \Delta s=0} or s 1 = s 2 {\displaystyle s_{1}=s_{2}} . [ 12 ]

  4. Compressor characteristic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compressor_characteristic

    Compressor characteristic is a mathematical curve that shows the behaviour of a fluid going through a dynamic compressor.It shows changes in fluid pressure, temperature, entropy, flow rate etc.) with the compressor operating at different speeds.

  5. Isentropic nozzle flow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isentropic_Nozzle_Flow

    The right curve of figure 2. represents the case when the reservoir pressure is increased and the receiver pressure is held constant. When M e = 1, the condition of choked flow also occurs; but Eq indicates that the mass flux will continue to increase as p 0 is increased. This is the case when a gas line ruptures.

  6. Entropy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Entropy

    A special case of entropy increase, the entropy of mixing, occurs when two or more different substances are mixed. If the substances are at the same temperature and pressure, there is no net exchange of heat or work – the entropy change is entirely due to the mixing of the different substances.

  7. Rayleigh flow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rayleigh_flow

    The change in entropy is 0 at M = 1 for each model, but the previous statement means the change in entropy from the same arbitrary point to the sonic point is different for the Fanno and Rayleigh flow models. If initial values of s i and M i are defined, a new equation for dimensionless entropy versus Mach number can be defined for each model ...

  8. Entropy (energy dispersal) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Entropy_(energy_dispersal)

    The entropy of mixing is one of these complex cases, when two or more different substances are mixed at the same temperature and pressure. There will be no net exchange of heat or work, so the entropy increase will be due to the literal spreading out of the motional energy of each substance in the larger combined final volume.

  9. Entropy (classical thermodynamics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Entropy_(classical...

    The entropy of the room has decreased. However, the entropy of the glass of ice and water has increased more than the entropy of the room has decreased. In an isolated system, such as the room and ice water taken together, the dispersal of energy from warmer to cooler regions always results in a net increase in entropy. Thus, when the system of ...
