[QUOTE]Originally posted by shade-tree: [QB] no all I'm saying is we don't have a controlled environment like the cylinder in an internal combustion engine where compression ratios and PV=nRT are almost 100% accurate (unless you're driving ST5150's car and have ~30% leakdown or whatever.... (obligatory) ;) ) in a compressor/intercooler arrangement there is no defined cylinder, you have air moving continually in/out of a system where you can *approximate* a volume but you have first and second harmonics, pulses, waves, vibration and at the end of the day even individual impeller blades will contribute to a delta V. I'll I'm trying to say is that in this system the volume is not absolute, but rather must be approximated. PV=nRT will tell you basically what's going on in this situation though, again, all I'm trying to say is volume is not fixed so PV=nRT is out the window.... [/QB][/QUOTE]
