Heat Of Compression: Understanding Thermal Energy Generated During Gas Compression
Heat of compression is the thermal energy produced when a gas is compressed. In adiabatic compression, the gas does not exchange heat with its surroundings, leading to a temperature increase. In isothermal compression, heat is removed to keep the temperature constant. In polytropic compression, the heat of compression is related to the adiabatic index, specific …
