Idiomatic Expressions for adiabat

• Phrase: adiabatic cooling
  Meaning: The process by which the temperature of a gas decreases as it expands without exchanging heat with its surroundings.
  Usage: Adiabatic cooling is often observed in meteorology, where air parcels rise and cool adiabatically as they expand.
