Pressure-Volume Energy Calculator

Formula

The formula to calculate the change in energy (dE) is:

\[ dE = P \times dV \]

Where:

\( dE \) is the change in energy (Joules).
\( P \) is the pressure (Pascals).
\( dV \) is the change in volume (m³).

Example

Let's say the pressure is 100,000 Pa, and the change in volume is 0.05 m³. Using the formula:

\[ dE = 100000 \times 0.05 \]

We get:

\[ dE = 5000 \]

So, the change in energy (\( dE \)) is 5000 Joules.

What is Pressure-Volume Energy?

Pressure-volume energy refers to the work done by or on a system when it undergoes a change in volume under constant pressure. It is calculated by multiplying the pressure by the change in volume.
