CHARACTERISTIC GAS EQUATION

The general gas equation for ideal gas is given by

pV / T = constant      ... (1.29)

where

p = Pressure in N/m2

V = Volume in m3

T = Temperature in K

Taking R as constant,

pV / T = R     ... (1.30)

pV = RT

If mass 'm' is considered, then the equation becomes

pV = mRT

This equation is known as characteristic gas equation.
