State Principle
|
The number of independent properties required to determine the state is equal to the number of relevant work modes plus one.
|
|
Sublimation
|
Phase change between solid and vapor.
|
|
Simple Compressible System
|
A system in which the only work mode is expansion and compression work.
|
|
Simple System
|
A system in which there is only one work mode.
|
|
Triple Point
|
A state characterized by the existence of solid, liquid, and vapor phases simultaneously.
|
|
Critical Point
|
State defining the greatest values of temperature and pressure at which the two-phase liquid-vapor mixture exists.
|
|
Compressed Liquid
|
Liquid phase existing at temperatures lower than saturation temperature.
|
|
Vapor Dome
|
Dome-shaped region on a phase diagram enclosing the two-phase liquid-vapor states.
|
|
Saturated Liquid
|
Liquid phase existing at saturation temperature and pressure.
|
|
Superheated Vapor
|
Vapor phase existing at temperature above saturation temperature or pressure below saturation pressure.
|
|
Quality
|
Mass fraction of a two-phase liquid-vapor mixture present as vapor.
