Disputatio:Pressio vaporis

message: Pantocrator, scio te redirectiones fecisse pressum et pressuram sed, ut bene scis, habemus quidem nostram commentationem de pressione. Consentisne melius esse habere quoque pressionem vaporis? --Ioscius∞ 19:57, 20 Februarii 2010 (UTC)

replies: text: :::Definitiones primae in OLD: pressio = 'pressure', pressus = 'the exertion of pressure', pressura = 'the action or fact of pressing; pressure'. It's clear that all three words can mean 'pressure', but pressio is the most common in scientific Latin. Pantocrator 05:41, 9 Martii 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: ::::According to Cassell's, the usual classical use of pressio (by Julius Caesar) is to mean 'leverage' or 'means of leverage', and the usual classical words for 'pressure' are pressus, vis, pondus, impressio, and nisus. When writing in dialect, as one may sometimes want do in relation to certain modern fields of endeavor (such as physics), it's best to be precise & obvious about the intended meanings of words that don't exist, or that have quite different meanings, in the classical language. For example, an ignorant reader must have no idea what 'ideal steam' (vapor idealis) might be, not least because classical Latin for English 'ideal' is perfectus, optimus, summus, omnibus numeris absolutis, and commenticius. Hence too the usefulness of links, &c. IacobusAmor 12:49, 9 Martii 2010 (UTC)

replies: text: True, but the equation does assume the gas phase to obey the ideal gas law. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clausius%E2%80%93Clapeyron_relation for example. Claiming that the equation is for 'nonideal gases' is clearly wrong. Pantocrator 01:22, 9 Martii 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: :How on earth can someone consider the clausius clapeyron equation to be an ideal gas law (which assumes no interactions between molecules) is beyond me.--Rafaelgarcia 01:30, 9 Martii 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: ::This is not a matter of opinion, but of mathematics. The equation is derived from the vapor's being ideal and the heat of vaporization being constant. Go through it yourself if you won't believe me. Pantocrator 01:36, 9 Martii 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: :::I have there  is no assumption of the gas above being ideal. The only approximations that people use are for Delta V and L, but those common approximations are not part of the CC equation, which is completely general. Ideal gases don't form liquids since they do not have potential energies acting between them. Often real gases approximate ideal gas, but only approximately.--24.107.235.195 13:47, 9 Martii 2010 (UTC)
thread_title: recens recensio a Pantocratore

message: As to what's being said in the article, I know next to nothing, but it may be worth pointing out that Pantocrator changed "The leverage of a gas, when the gas is 'ideal,' grows in proportion to the temperature" to "The leverage of steam grows by means of temperature." I suppose the terms pressio and idealis must mean something in the evolved language, or in some scientific dialect of it, but they might want to be defined (or linked to their definitions) so that they can become intelligible to those untrained in such matters.

text: and pressio should be. Anyway, Rafael's sentence is just wrong. That pressure increases with temperature is not a function of the ideality (or not) of the vapor, but of the (condensed phase) process of evaporation. 'In proportion to', in English, usually indicates a linear relationship, which we don't have here; the exact relation is very complex and can only be modeled empirically (Clausius-Clapeyron is only a rough approximation as the heat of evaporation is not constant with temperature and necessarily becomes zero at the critical point).
