Characteristics of throttling process:.

-No work is done.
-There is no heat transfer to the system from the surroundings to the system.
-It is an isenthalpic process and the process is irreversible (found example in real life).

For an ideal gas, the enthalpy is the function of temperature only since the internal energy of the ideal gas only depends on the temperature, i.e. U= temperature.
