Pronunciation: /ˈæ.di.ə.bæt/
noun a curve representing the changes in pressure and volume of a system undergoing adiabatic process
A1 An adiabat is a line on a thermodynamic diagram representing a process in which no heat is exchanged with the surroundings.
A2 The concept of adiabat is often used in physics to describe systems where heat transfer is negligible.
B1 Understanding the behavior of an adiabat can help predict how a system will respond to changes in temperature and pressure.
B2 Engineers often analyze processes using adiabats to optimize energy efficiency in various systems.
C1 The study of adiabats is essential in the field of thermodynamics for accurately modeling complex systems.
C2 Advanced researchers use adiabatic processes to study the behavior of gases under extreme conditions.
adjective relating to or denoting a process or condition in which heat does not enter or leave the system
A1 The adiabat process does not involve any heat exchange with the surroundings.
A2 The adiabat container kept the temperature of the contents constant.
B1 The adiabat wall prevented heat from escaping the room.
B2 The adiabat insulation maintained the temperature inside the building.
C1 The adiabat system in the laboratory ensured precise temperature control.
C2 The adiabat conditions created a stable environment for the experiment.
formal The adiabat process involves no heat exchange with the surroundings.
informal I learned about adiabat in my thermodynamics class.
slang Don't worry about the adiabat stuff, it's not that important for the test.
figurative The adiabat concept can be applied to real-life situations where heat transfer is minimal.
