Hi, I'd appreciate discussion of the process in other representations/diagrams too. Most notably T-S repr. --83.208.93.77 00:19, 5 February 2007 (UTC)

The equations are not explained properly - the symbols aren't even defined (it is only implied that p is pressure, for example, and the others aren't described at all).
Where did the equation come from? (Evidence, applications, etc.) What does it mean? (Symbols, units, implications, etc.)
It would be great if people who didn't already have a degree in physics or engineering could understand this.

In some texts work done to the system is positive and in others it is negative, this is something that should be noted. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 207.74.114.18 (talk) 05:23, 21 March 2012 (UTC)
I think the sign used in the article is wrong. If the work done by the system is considered positive, then it must be delta U minus W, as the internal energy must reduce.
loads of this article is just wrong, things that are only true for reversible processes, and things that are only true for ideal gasses are quoted as true generally. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 129.67.39.207 (talk) 11:06, 27 May 2010 (UTC)
