There is in addition a fifth cycle, polytropic, which is commonly used as a basis for performance estimation; it is intermediate between the isothermal and the isentropic curves. This takes into account the practical observation that real compression can take place neither at constant temperature nor without heat exchange to the surroundings.lt is characterised by the value of the polytropic exponent, n, an empirical value which is not capable of theoretical determination, but which has generally accepted values for various kinds of compressors. <\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\"><a href=\"http:\/\/lh3.googleusercontent.com\/-amJHqnPBL64\/VecKzfT21VI\/AAAAAAAB6sI\/dQaGtKkQkwk\/s1600-h\/Basic%252520Principles-0116%25255B2%25255D.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" style=\"background-image: none;
