In an adiabatic flash process, a choke valve produces the partial phase change due to the sudden pressure change at that valve. In isothermal process, a choke valve is not necessary because phase change occurs at the heat exchanger located previous to the flash drum. What is isothermal and adiabatic?Read More →

Is it possible to achieve isothermal process practically? In isothermal process, temperature of the system is constant and also equal to that of surroundings in contact with the system. Heat supplied to a system is possible if there is some temperature difference between the system and surrounding. … Hence, isothermalRead More →
