What is a cyclic process ?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Cyclic processes :
This is a thermodynamic process in which the thermodynamic system returns to its initial state after undergoing a series of changes . Since the system comes back to the initial state the change in the internal energy is zero. In cyclic process, heat can flow in to system and flow out of the system .
