Basic Thermodynamics Prof. S.K. Som Department of Mechanical Engineering Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur Lecture - 18 Properties of Pure Substances -Ideal Gases Good morning. We are discussing about the properties of pure substances for last few classes, phase diagram. Today, we will be closing that topic by discussing one aspect of this which is known as ClausiusClapeyron equation. We have recognized that saturation states are specified by the couple of pressures and temperatures, both for transformation from liquid to vapor and from Solid to liquid. What is the relationship between these two so that one knows the pressure can automatically know the temperature, based on which the pressures and temperatures are determined and tabulated. For an example, in steam table for water, we know that when saturation pressure is fixed temperature. For example, if it is one atmospheric pressure then the saturation temperature is 100 degree Celsius. Similarly, if the pressure is ten atmospheric then what is the saturation temperature? What is that relationship based on which the values are tabulated was given by two scientists Clausius and Clapeyron. So, this we will discuss today.
