1. When a fluid is allowed to expand suddenly into a vaccum chamber through an orifice of large dimensions, the process is known as free expansion process.
6. The amount of heat required to raise the temperature of unit mass of a gas through one degree at constant pressure is called specific heat at constant pressure.
8. The heat absorbed or rejected by the working substance is given by (where ds = Increase or decrease of entropy, T = Absolute temperature, and dQ = Heat absorbed or rejected)
