WHAT DOES ISENTROPIC MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Isentropic process

In thermodynamics, an isentropic process or isoentropic process (ισον = "equal" (Greek); εντροπία entropy = "disorder"(Greek)) is one in which, for purposes of easy engineering analysis and calculations, one may assume that the process takes place from initiation to completion without an increase or decrease in the entropy of the system, i.e., the entropy of the system remains constant throughout. It can be proven that any reversible adiabatic process is an isentropic process. A simple more common definition of isentropic would be one that produces "No change in entropy".

Definition of isentropic in the English dictionary

The definition of isentropic in the dictionary is having or taking place at constant entropy.
