Entropy equations of a perfect gas:
From the combined equation for first and second law:
First equation:
Tds = du + pdv
For perfect gas, du = CvdT
Pv = RT
Second equation:
Tds = dh – vdP
For perfect gas, dh = CpdT
The ideal gas equation Pv = RT can be written as
Taking differential on both sides
Now putting the value of dT/T in eqn (1)
It is known that Cp = Cv + R
