Equation of state For a given mass of fluid in thermodynamic equilibrium, the state is uniquely specified by the values of two parameters, e.g., the pressure and the temperature. Thus, there exists a relation connecting the pressure, the temperature and the density. \(f(p,\rho,T)=0.\) Such a relation is known as the equation of state of the flu...
