Whats the lowest energy substance reaches during adiabatic expansion of carnot engine? [closed]
In carnot engine we know the steps like first isothermal, than adiabatic, then reverse isothermal and adiabatic.
And we know that efficiency increase if the temperature of hot box(heat supllier) is ...

Why do we need an adiabatic expansion in the Carnot cycle? [duplicate]
As we know that 1st process is an reversible isothermal expansion during this the system is in quasi static equilibrium which helps in increasing the volume of the system but why does the second step ...

Reversibility of the ideal Carnot cycle
How do adiabatic processes in the reversible Carnot cycle take place? Is the gas adiabatically isolated? If so, how would that happen in real life? (I know that Carnot cycle is not practically ...

Difference between reversible and irreversible adiabatic process in PV diagram
let's say we've got a carnot-cycle in a pressure volume diagram with the following processes:
1 -> 2: reversible isothermal
2 -> 3: reversible adiabatic
3 -> 4: reversible isothermal
4 -> 1: ...
