=== Specific Heat Relations ===
For thermally perfect and calorically perfect gases
<math display="block">
\begin{aligned}
&C_p=\frac{dh}{dT}\\
&C_v=\frac{de}{dT}
\end{aligned}
</math>
From the definition of enthalpy and the equation of state <math>p=\rho RT</math>
<math display="block">
h=e+\frac{p}{\rho}=e+RT
</math>
Differentiate Eqn. \ref{eq:enthalpy} with respect to temperature gives
<math display="block">
\frac{dh}{dT}=\frac{de}{dT}+\frac{d(RT)}{dT}
</math>
Inserting the specific heats gives
<math display="block">
C_p=C_v+R
</math>
Dividing Eqn. \ref{eq:specificheat:b} by <math>C_v</math> gives
<math display="block">
\frac{C_p}{C_v}=1+\frac{R}{C_v}
</math>
Introducing the ratio of specific heats defined as
<math display="block">
\gamma=\frac{C_p}{C_v}
</math>
Now, inserting Eqn. \ref{eq:gamma} in Eqn. \ref{eq:specificheat:c} gives
<math display="block">
C_v=\frac{R}{\gamma-1}
</math>
In the same way, dividing Eqn. \ref{eq:specificheat:b} with <math>C_p</math> gives
<math display="block">
1=\frac{C_v}{C_p}+\frac{R}{C_p}=\frac{1}{\gamma}+\frac{R}{C_p}
</math>
and thus
<math display="block">
C_p=\frac{\gamma R}{\gamma-1}
</math>
=== Isentropic Relations ===
First law of thermodynamics:
<math display="block">
de=\delta q - \delta w
</math>
For a reversible process: <math>\delta w=pd(1/\rho)</math> and <math>\delta q=Tds</math>
<math display="block">
de=Tds-pd\left(\frac{1}{\rho}\right)
</math>
Enthalpy is defined as: <math>h=e+p/\rho</math> and thus
<math display="block">
dh=de+pd\left(\frac{1}{\rho}\right)+\left(\frac{1}{\rho}\right)dp
</math>
Eliminate $de$ in Eqn. \ref{eq:firstlaw:b} using Eqn. \ref{eq:dh}
<math display="block">
Tds=dh-\cancel{pd\left(\frac{1}{\rho}\right)}-\left(\frac{1}{\rho}\right)dp+\cancel{pd\left(\frac{1}{\rho}\right)}
</math>
<math display="block">
ds=\frac{dh}{T}-\frac{dp}{\rho T}
</math>
Using <math>dh=C_p T</math> and the equation of state <math>p=\rho RT</math>, we get
<math display="block">
ds=C_p\frac{dT}{T}-R\frac{dp}{p}
</math>
Integrating Eqn. \ref{eq:ds} gives
<math display="block">
s_2-s_1=\int_1^2 C_p\frac{dT}{T}-R\ln\left(\frac{p_2}{p_1}\right)
</math>
For a calorically perfect gas, <math>C_p</math> is constant (not a function of temperature) and can be moved out from the integral and thus
<math display="block">
s_2-s_1=C_p\ln\left(\frac{T_2}{T_1}\right)-R\ln\left(\frac{p_2}{p_1}\right)
</math>
An alternative form of Eqn. \ref{eq:ds:c} is obtained by using <math>de=C_v dT</math> Eqn. \ref{eq:firstlaw:b}, which gives
<math display="block">
s_2-s_1=\int_1^2 C_v\frac{dT}{T}-R\ln\left(\frac{\rho_2}{\rho_1}\right)
</math>
Again, for a calorically perfect gas, we get
<math display="block">
s_2-s_1=C_v\ln\left(\frac{T_2}{T_1}\right)-R\ln\left(\frac{\rho_2}{\rho_1}\right)
</math>
=== Isentropic Relations ===
Adiabatic and reversible processes, i.e., isentropic processes implies <math>ds=0</math> and thus Eqn. \ref{eq:ds:c} reduces to
<math display="block">
\frac{C_p}{R}\ln\left(\frac{T_2}{T_1}\right)=\ln\left(\frac{p_2}{p_1}\right)
</math>
<math display="block">
\frac{C_p}{R}=\frac{\gamma}{\gamma-1}
</math>
<math display="block">
\frac{\gamma}{\gamma-1}\ln\left(\frac{T_2}{T_1}\right)=\ln\left(\frac{p_2}{p_1}\right)\Rightarrow
</math>
<math display="block">
\frac{p_2}{p_1}=\left(\frac{T_2}{T_1}\right)^{\gamma/(\gamma-1)}
</math>
In the same way, Eqn. \ref{eq:ds:e} gives
<math display="block">
\frac{\rho_2}{\rho_1}=\left(\frac{T_2}{T_1}\right)^{1/(\gamma-1)}
</math>
Eqn. \ref{eq:isentropic:a} and Eqn. \ref{eq:isentropic:b} constitutes the isentropic relations
<math display="block">
\frac{p_2}{p_1}=\left(\frac{\rho_2}{\rho_1}\right)^{\gamma}=\left(\frac{T_2}{T_1}\right)^{\gamma/(\gamma-1)}
</math>
