dcterms:description |
The specific heat ratio of a gas is the ratio of the specific heat at constant pressure,
\(c_p\), to the specific heat at constant volume, \(c_V\).
It is sometimes referred to as the \(\textit{adiabatic index}\),
or the \(\textit{heat capacity ratio}\),
or the \(\textit{isentropic expansion factor}\),
or the \(\textit{adiabatic exponent}\),
or the \(\textit{isentropic exponent}\).
