Exactly. There's no mention at all about the foundation of all your arguments, namely that compression be inherently isentropic. It simply is not. You can add it as an additional constraint, if you want to.
What I say is that even when dV approaches a constant, the pressure still rises, so the product also rises.

- pfdietz 6y agoRequiring compression to be isentropic is just requiring "compression" to be a well-defined term with a specific quantitative result. Otherwise, it's a vague term that offers no quantitative prediction for how much heating it produces for a given change in density. That's not science.
