Adiabatic

What do we mean by adiabatic?

Of, relating to, or being a reversible thermodynamic process that occurs without gain or loss of heat and without a change in entropy. adjective

Without transference: used in thermodynamics of a change in volume, whether by expansion or contraction, unaccompanied by a gain or loss of heat.

An adiabatic line. noun

Not giving out or receiving heat. adjective

A curve exhibiting the variations of pressure and volume of a fluid when it expands without either receiving or giving out heat. adjective

(of a thermodynamic process) Occurring without gain or loss of heat. adjective

Occurring without loss or gain of heat adjective

(of a process) That occurs without gain or loss of heat (and thus with no change in entropy, in the quasistatic approximation).

(of a process) That involves the slow change of the Hamiltonian of a system from its initial value to a final value.
