3.1 Thermodynamics reminder
3.1.1 Notion of perfect gases – real gases
The perfect gas is a thermodynamic model developed in the 19th century based on the observation that all gases tend towards the same behavior at sufficiently low pressure, whatever their chemical nature.
This model describes the behavior of all real gases at low pressure, and establishes a relationship between pressure, volume and temperature, regardless of the nature of the gas. This relationship is known as Mariotte's...
