What is a cyclic process ?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

(i) This a thermodynamic process in which the thermodynamic system returnsto its initial state after undergoing a series of changes .
(ii) Since the system comes back to the initial state the change in the internal energy is zero ,
(iii) In cyclic process heat can flow in to system and heat out of the system.
