Question

What is meant by a Carnot's cycle in thermodynamics?

Answer 1

The carnots cyle has four process. There are two adiabatic reveraible legs and two isothermal reversible legs. We can construct carnots cycle by many different systems, but the concept can be shown using a familiar working fluid, the ideal gas.

Answer 2

Explanation:

The Carnot cycle is a theoretical ideal thermodynamic cycle proposed by French physicist Sadi Carnot in 1824 and expanded upon by others in the 1830s and 1840s. ... When a system is taken through a series of different states and finally returned to its initial state, a thermodynamic cycle is said to have occurred
