Tell me what are non flow processes.

I agree that isentropic is reversible one but I am sure that it is not valid for isothermal process.

Non flow process means the fluid or working fluid does not flow, h=^u. Simply not with flow energy as PV.

Disagree. Because a process can have constant entropy i.e. it can be isentropic if it is irreversible also. If the entropy decrease due to heat flow out of the system is equal due to entropy increase due to entropy generated within the system due to internal irreversibilities, then the net change of entropy of the irreversible process is zero i.e. the entropy is constant and the process is isentropic.

Completely Disagree answer should be B. Above explanations are true.

Kukku said:   1 decade ago
Agree, because we know that both process are worked in Carnot cycle. And Carnot cycle is a reversible cycle.

Atul said:   1 decade ago
Disagree, because every isentropic process is not reversible.

@Kukku.

You are talking about ideal Carnot cycle in which isotropic and diabetic are same and I am agreeing with @Gopianand.

All reversible adiabatic processes are isentropic but all isentropic process are not reversible. In irreversible process, when heat is rejected from the system, entropy change may be positive, negative or zero. Only when entropy change is zero the irreversible process is isentropic but when the entropy change is positive it is not isentropic.

Isothermal process is reversible if only heat is transferred between finite temperature difference.

That's happening in Carnot cycle.

So, isothermal reversible or irreversible depends upon the source and system temperature difference.

Isentropic = adiabatic + reversible.
