The tutor introduces an interesting law from chemistry.<\/h1>\n

Amonton’s Law states that the pressure of a gas is directly related to its absolute temperature:<\/p>\n

P=kT, where k is some constant.<\/p>\n

Amonton’s Law needs the conditions of constant moles of gas present and constant volume, which means it is only feasible for calculating pressure response to temperature change, rather than the other way. (For the increase of temperature due to compression, see my post here<\/a>.)<\/p>\n

With refrigeration, Amonton’s Law is useful for considering what happens after<\/em> compression. During compression, the refrigerant’s temperature rises. Afterwards, however, it radiates heat to the environment; its temperature plummets. During that time, its pressure decreases as well, by Amonton’s Law. The loss of heat and decrease in pressure prepare the refrigerant for condensation to liquid state.<\/p>\n

I’ll be talking further about refrigeration:)<\/p>\n
