processus adiabatique

An adiabatic process is a change in a gas or substance that happens without any heat flowing in or out of it. This matters because many important real-world events—like air cooling as it rises in the atmosphere or compression in engine cylinders—occur so quickly that heat doesn't have time to transfer, making adiabatic processes essential for understanding how these systems actually work.
