Reduced pressure
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In thermodynamics, the reduced pressure of a fluid is defined as its actual pressure divided by its critical pressure.
These dimensionless themodynamic coordinates (together with the reduced temperature) provide the basis fot the simplest form of the theorem of corresponding states.
The reduced pressure is often used in thermodynamical formulas, e.g. the Peng-Robinson equation of state.
