EXPERIMENT 1: ISENTROPIC EXPANSION PROCESS Objectives: 1) To demonstrate the isentropic expansion process. Introduction: In thermodynamics‚ an isentropic process is a process in which the process takes place from initiation to completion without an increase or decrease in the entropy of the system. One example of a process that approaches being isentropic are the rapid depressurization of gas in a cylinder. The entropy of the system remains in constant. Entropy is a type of energy

Coefficient of Linear Expansion Introduction With few exceptions materials expand somewhat when heated through a temperature range that does not produce a change in phase (i.e. melting‚ freezing‚ boiling etc.). The added heat increases the average amplitude of vibration of the atoms in the material‚ which increases the average separation between the atoms. Although this effect is small‚ it is very important in any application that involves using different materials in an environment where they

My Exploration Of Three Mexican Cities The three cities that I chose to visit were Cozumel‚ Mazatlan‚ and San Miguel De Allende. I would visit Cozumel in the spring because of the nice weather‚ Mazatlan in the fall for the many festivals‚ and San Miguel in the summer for the sightseeing. Cozumel’s history is filled with excitement. The Mayans were believed to have settled there first. This has been shown from the age of many artifacts found in the city. This island was sacred to the maya moon

Geographic and Environmental Influences of U.S. Expansion The two most significant environmental and geographical factors that contributed to the expansion of the United States (US) were the California Gold Rush and the Irish Potato famine. The gold rush created a movement of people to Northern California‚ specifically to the area around San Francisco and Sacramento from all over the United States (Udall & Emmons‚ 2003). In addition‚ migration was not limited to US fortune seekers but triggered
