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.
2. 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.
7. 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)
